Interested in talking to anyone who is making a good amount of profit from crafting.

I've only been crafting for around a year, and looking at getting a website, branding etc.
Looking to hear some success stories for inpiration.

Thanks.

I have never tried a craft market selling my own stuff. My kids are older teens so I have a lot of time.
Really looking at ways I can go really big with my business.

Hand-made jewellery seems a thing you can make a bit of money from but don't know much about it. Agree there isn't much profit in knitting or sewing. But I suppose alterations to curtains and clothing could make something but that's not exactly crafting!

Jewellery is one of my nest projects too . I am hoping for success.

I make some things & sell on Etsy, but don't make mega bucks (I also have a full time job).

I love making things though, so it's a way for me to be able to feed my passion!

I teach a craft from home and have a class of 9 twice a week. I supply all materials to my students. This makes money but not enough to live on!
