Do you love making unique gifts and keepsakes with your hands? Have you had people ooh'ing and ahh'ing over your creations for years? Do you wish you had more time so that you could do more crafting and maybe make money doing it? If so, this book is for you!
Craft shows are everywhere in nearly every town at one time or another. Perhaps these shows are attached to town festivals. Perhaps the festivals themselves are what make the town famous. Either way, these shows are money-making possibilities for the serious crafter.
It's a huge step when you decide to take a hobby to the next level and start trying to make money off of it. It's scary, it's difficult, but it can be so very rewarding. The key to making your crafting business a success is being prepared and armed with information. You have to know what you're doing before you can start.
This is more than just a guidebook, it's a training manual designed especially for you – the beginning craft business.
When you start your own business, the advantages are huge. Consider the following:

- Work out of the comfort of your own home
