I saw card making packs in Lakeland when I was over in England. Was tempted to buy a couple, is it easy to do?

I would love to make cards, candles, pottery etc and sell them at our local farmers/craft market - but I doubt it would pay many bills!!

hi kim

Just about to start a jewellery making course. Love arts and craft. Decided to give it a go after having to pay someone else to make my wedding necklace and earrings.

I love crafts great to hear someone else does too. My problem is I get bored easily and have to keep finding new ones to do.
I like scrapbooking though and have loads of them lying about the place I've got cupboards full of bits and bobs too that I have forgotten all about God knows how much I have spent and wasted, it is lucky I am skint at the moment

I make cards sometimes for people's birthdays and at christmas but I'm thinking of doing more. There are so many nice things to buy at the moment for card making

oh i missed this one!!

I make them a lot, have excellent catalogues etc that sell some fab stuff.
I make all my own christmas ones, and lots of birthday ones. Most of mine are made for the RSPCA and IRISH SETTER RESCUE events, all the profits go to them - its just a hobby for me.

Do crafts is excellent also if you have a shop called hobby crafts - they have some great bits in there.
