    From design, to shirt! I love doing this!

    That's awesome! Are you using a site or doing it at home?

    I do it all at home!

    Researching starting my own blog or an Etsy shop. I want to do both and both scare the *kitten* out of me but I am ready to do something for me, something new.. something to expand my horizons and make some extra money in the process.

    Ooh if you start an Etsy shop, what will you sell?

    I am compiling a list now, I make lots of crafty stuff.. 3 tier metal display trays, all types of wreaths, decorative wall stuff (technical I know), looking into T-Shirts (I have a good friend with a t-shirt shop that he doesn't use so if I can work a deal with him, I would have access to all the equipment) yoga headbands, etc. I need to brush up on my crocheting and knitting skills, I could make all kinds of money there. I don't plan to get rich but supplemental income doing things I love doing and am doing for basically free now, if friends ask me to make them something, I usually only charge them for materials. If it's a good friend I don't even do that.

    The blog thing I have toyed with for years, I just need to perfect my niche, write some stuff up, find some affiliates to pay me and do it.

    That would be so cool! I wish I was creative like that.
    I loved writing my blog, it was just personal rants but it was a good outlet for me. I think I already told you how that ended so I won’t get into that but I think both of these are really good ideas.

    I will show you a couple of the things I have made recently when I get home.

    I use to write a lot, before blogging was a thing so not many people read what I wrote but I loved it and it is a great outlet. Now, if I can start making money from it, even better! I really think Lulu would be a phenomenal bloggist. She could really entertain an audience.

    Agreed

    Oh god, yes. She’d be great.

    Resting. Walmart trips wear me out and I always see something there I can't unsee. I feel tortured, maybe I need a nap.

    Haha! Yes! Even workouts aren't as tiring. And I tend to binge eat when I get home from Wal-Mart.
