Welcome to another artist vlog where I share my creative journey! This week, I'm taking a big leap and diving into monetizing my art. Get a behind-the-scenes look at my artist Etsy shop update, including new prints, canvases, and tote bags featuring art from my zine, The World is Full of Stories. I discuss the healthy balancing act of creating with passion and putting my work out there, even with past creative process struggles.

You'll also get a full book binding tutorial for beginners as I finish attaching an embroidered book cover to my latest inspiration book. Learn about book binding diy easy techniques and see my fun (and messy) process of handmade book binding.

I hope this creative process vlog inspires you to keep creating.
