do u print ur own stickers or do u have em done by a third party? was wondering bcuz I wanna make & sell a few of my own but idrk where 2 start
i print mine myself these days. i have a decent printer (a Brother MFC-J433DW) and a Silhouette Portrait 3, but with sticker materials and everything too that's a lot of up-front expense/learning curve. die cutters are asshole machines, worse than printers, and it's a while before you can really work with them efficiently ime. it was worth it to me to drop that cash because i want to be able to do small batches of weird stuff and see what sells. if you want shiny, you can buy holographic clear vinyl laminate and sticker paper by the sheet. here's a silly process video i made a while ago about how i make my stickers!
it's probably more practical, starting out, to choose a couple of designs you think are your strongest and just have those printed professionally.
third parties i rec:
stickerapp - really nice quality, lots of options, easy to work with, they did my Nurse Joy stickers and a few others.
vograce - probably the best budget option, but shipping takes a while
stickerninja also does really good work and has some unique options!
i OPPOSITE-recommend stickermule, who are unfortunately still a big name, but their CEO gave money to the Trump campaign and they've done various shitty stunts on twitter i can't even remember right now lol.
