If you’re a crafter who has recently switched from doing your hobby for pleasure to doing it for business, then you might be having some adjustment issues. Though you’re still creating the same kinds of products, you have to treat every decision as a business one and remember that your goal now is to make money from doing something you love.

When starting a craft business, it is important that you love your product and the type of craft that you’re working on. If you hope to make your living in the craft industry, you have to be really passionate about the work you’re doing, because it can often take a lot of time and dedication to see a return on your investment. If you don’t love what your do, you probably won’t be able to make the commitment that the craft industry demands.
