*What do you enjoy the most about your business and “crafting”?
I enjoy painting things, or making an arrangement of some kind. However, having a customer buy my items in places like Colorado, or Washington is wonderful. Just knowing a craft I made is in someone's home and they are enjoying it, makes me feel great. Plus, getting an email from a customer who is thrilled with what they have bought is also very satisfying.

Yes, I make a variety of crafts, such as painting, cross stitch, putting together candle pans and boxes, and, also making candle lamp arrangements.

*Do you have any advice for others who would like to create an online business?
