and how you make money from them. I've looked at several and have some ideas but don't quite 'get it'.

Also, since I'm sitting outside of Seattle right now, I was reading the Seattle paper (the name just went out of my head but it's something like the Intelligencer-something) and reading about small home based businesses.

Hubs and I are getting tired of the road and I was thinking that in addition to a local driving job, I'd like to produce some of my products again. I have an etsy site but nothing on it. Seems like I can't quite get started. Anyone else have that problem??

Advice??

Winona, is something keeping you from getting started? What type of crafting do you enjoy doing? Start from there and just let your imagination do the rest. Make a couple things and see how they go, if they move then make some more. Eventually once you get the creative juices flowing you'll get more and more ideas! Just step out and see what you come up with, I bet you'll surprise yourself!!!

Well, I have Xmas ornaments that I made for several years and did okay with them. But I would have to make my designs all over again...which is no problem. I love counted X-stitch but it's getting harder for me. My cousin does Swedish crochet and said she'd teach me, it's lovely stuff!

I have my photos that I take but somehow I want to keep the best ones for myself, kind of hogging them!!

I saw on some sites where people were selling their photos but I dont' understand how you would do it. I used to rescue quite a few horses but the work would kill me now and I don't have a place to set up shop now anyway.

I suppose I need to start with a small plan and maybe a list of ideas and then go from there??

Whaddya think?? I'm going to give it a shot and am thinking out 'loud' now...musing...
