Thanks so much for being you, being honest about the ups and downs of being a mum and an artist and a businesswoman so needs to juggle her time wisely or clone herself. I am going through the same feelings. The biz advisor sounds very helpful if only it wasn't a negitive sort of pressure as well. You are so awesome! I love your work and your blog.Aly- Bliss Monkey Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11409377685547762884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22670456.post-12966858473263608692008-07-19T00:38:00.000+03:002008-07-19T00:38:00.000+03:00oooh that sounds nasty....as everyone else has sai...oooh that sounds nasty....as everyone else has said...you gotta stick with it - your stuff is so lovely and with even a smidgeaon of good luck your crafting business will go from strength to strength...keep it up!Annie Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17692298141981772318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22670456.post-2287494057034521072008-07-15T14:32:00.000+03:002008-07-15T14:32:00.000+03:00Well, I really hope that everything will work out ...Well, I really hope that everything will work out - it's always hard when you realize that the visions and the reality are not easily combined...

Listening to the radio today I heard about a recent study in Norway on how much artists make. (Apparently in the last 10 years the number of artists have doubled!) The bottom line is that most were quite poor. I love the idea of making money on crafts though. You are brave and sure to make it!!! Your wares are so original and also wonderful!!!<BR/>Happy weekend! I am sure if you wanted to request ideas from your readers/fans we could all brainstorm together!<BR/>~EmilyRavenhillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384299378805534768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22670456.post-27794763493182630102008-07-11T23:10:00.000+03:002008-07-11T23:10:00.000+03:00I think you are doing a great job and it's not eas...I think you are doing a great job and it's not easy at all to sell things you've made yourself.<BR/><BR/>Good luck with the business - you are doing great things!<BR/><BR/>xxxxMrs Mooghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15557955127436410152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22670456.post-7910993745180442512008-07-11T20:19:00.000+03:002008-07-11T20:19:00.000+03:00Hang in there kajsa!

Jag gjorde det för ca 1 och ett halvt år sedan och håller på fortfarande, men det är jättetufft. Det kräver att man har en förstående familj + att man får leva på nästan ingenting ibland. Jag har precis startat en blogg men har inte riktigt haft tid att ägna mig åt den också. Visst är det svårt att hinna med allt som man vill!!HemmaFABRIKENhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16509548391336471256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22670456.post-47154219810860871572008-07-10T09:27:00.000+03:002008-07-10T09:27:00.000+03:00I'm holding a banner contest for my second blog an...I'm holding a banner contest for my second blog anniversary.
