With craft show season quickly approaching, I wanted to provide a list of my favorite things to have available for buyers. I hope that this can serve as a guide for crafters of all types! Please keep in mind that these are the items I provide as a crocheter, resin artist, and sticker maker, but …
Crafting to Pay Off My Car
