Businesses and Resources for
Artists and Crafters
“SOMETIMES THE EASIEST way to turn dreams into reality is simply to focus your energies on something you really love to do...”
Barbara Brabec
Are you an artist, designer or "crafty" person? Don't believe people who tell you that you can't make a living as an artist or crafter - you can! Many people are enjoying living the life they choose, doing the work they choose.
Throughout history women have made extra money by selling handmade items. But in today’s world, more than just “mad money” can be made selling homemade goods. There are a variety of outlets in which to find or sell arts and crafts, including the Internet, crafts fairs, direct-mail, e-bay and small local boutiques.
Thanks to the Internet, it is now easier than ever to find quality wholesalers from whom you can buy discounted supplies and raw goods to create your wares.
