I love doing crafts… could I make a living at home on that?

I love crafts, cross stitching, sewing, paper crafts, beads, dolls, cold porcelain, etc. Do you think I could make a living at home by doing this and selling? Any ideas?

    Moon, it is a great idea as long as your products sell. Maybe you could get a partner to help you so you could get things finished quicker.

    You could easily sell your crafts online and make a living. Just need to be priced right and most important GET YOUR NAME OUT THERE! :-)

    I only do craft fairs in the fall and always do fantastic!! Haven’t charged a Christmas gift in years!

    I’ve been developing a craft business for several years, it takes time. You have to be determined and have another source of income. You could try selling on etsy.com for starters because people go there to buy crafts. Also, you could do fairs, but sometimes you have to pay to enter. If you do fairs you might have to have a way to accept credit card payments. If its a true business you want, then do it right. Get a tax i.d. number and a sales tax number so you can buy wholesale. Like I said, it takes time. Good luck!
