OK you crafty people, here's a thread to get you pondering. I know a lot of us sell bits & bobs to friends but how many people run their crafting as a proper business - ie. registered, paying tax etc. How did you make that jump & is it still fun?
I log what I buy & sell (basically to stop myself getting carried away & buying too many beads !) but I don't consider myself a business (even though strictly speaking, as soon as you sell something - you are classed as trading apparantly) - hence I feel I can't advertise anywhere or actively sell via Etsy / other outlets for fear of the taxman.
What are your thoughts on the matter, fellow crafters?
