[Nfb-krafters-korner] Starting a Business in Crafts

[Eleni Vamvakari]

Thanks Annette and Joyce.  I haven't gone to any crafts shows, since I
don't know where any are located in my area and have no one to take
me.  That said, my boyfriend might be able to if it's during the
weekend.  I'm terrible with mathematics so all of this would just give
me a headache if I tried it on my own.  That said, I've saved your
questions and will attempt to work on them, if only for myself.  Your
strategy for estimating is very logical.  But I will still seek help
in actually writing these things out.  I didn't know that you needed
permits or a business license just to sell on Ebay and/or Craigslist
or on your own site.  I doubt that I could use my income in the
beginning to cover my monthly living expenses but they'll probably
lower my SSI payments etc. if I go this route anyway.  I'll check into
these resources if I don't hear back from my counselor etc.  I'm not
really sure how much The Comission would be willing to help me, since
they already paid for a part of my college education and for an
independence centre experience.  Still, it's worth trying.  But I'm
really interested in this online course.  It sounds doable and I don't
need to worry about transportation at all.

Thanks,
Eleni
