Should I start an upcycling business?

Or does everyone do it?
No idea if my stuff is good enough - but I do enjoy it

I already have a mending/repair/altering business - does it just sit next to it?

Should I invest in some clothing to upcycle and see if I can sell it?

Being very undecided!

I suppose this no reason not to try it. More in a "do it because you like it but see if it sells" kind of way rather than an actual business to start with.

Thanks Soupy, I've been a bit lost since the nursery went bust

I need some motivation/inspiration I guess

I know what you mean.

I'm not entirely convinced this sort of thing is ever likely to make much money. It's probably better to view it as a hobby that might bring in some cash.

Yes I guess - paying for my own sewing would be good Wink
