hey,
I too have tried every avenue in trying to get back to work after being a single parent on benefits. I too have a degree, and have discovered the best way is to create your own work. I now teach music part-time from home and am in the process of trying to start up my own business in jewellery design. Does anyone have any experience in this field?
I now have the capital to buy the equipment I need, I just dont know which suppliers to go with. There seem to be 100's on the web.
Need to buy pliers, chain, beads etc.
Also, is it a good idea to set up my own website for selling jewellery, or is it easier to sell on e-bay?
It will be fairly middle-market prices, though I will attempt to use really good materials, locally sourced where possible.
Mainly lapworking glass beads etc.
If anyone has any advice it would be much appreciated. As a single parent on benefits I am determined to change our lives around.
Thanks
