MY THOUGHTS About the book:
If you have ever wondered about making money selling your crafts and designs this is a great 'go to' book.

It begins with the basics of staying on track, getting paid and copyright info.  From there you will read interviews and articles, getting tips on everything from pinterest, pricing and craft shows.

Also included are lists of shows, fairs, online marketplaces, publishers, magazines, retreats and online communities.


You will learn a lot from this book, you will not find cozy stories of success or ideas of items to make...definitely purchase this book if you're looking to get into the bigger market, this book is not really intended for the small school/church/etc. type of shows!

**I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for review from Bethany over at Lifestyle, Craft and Design.
