Hello Crafter,

 

Yikes, this summer is going by fast! It won’t be long before the kids will be in school and you will be thinking about Fall. Get ready to start your projects so you can be ready for some fun. Have you thought about selling your work? Molds are a great way to make some extra money. With little investment you can grow a business into something that you can be proud of. Think about selling online. Both eBay and Etsy are a great place to start. Think about making clay castings to make jewelry to both wear and sell. It’s both fun and economical.

You won’t want to miss this! So sit back and enjoy this issue of My Molds! J
