Crafty Tom

  • 1 min read

Planned, thought, devised… not done. Had so many crafty ideas in the past, small ways of making money, doing something different. The largets, most developed on was making and selling cards, hand cut with tissue in the window. This goes back a fair few years, and the designs have refined over the years. I still enjoy the card making, but the plans never ripened, and I highly doubt I’d ever make real money out of it. I say I enjoy it - but there’s always the need to try a new design to avoid the cards I give family being the same, again, and that’s taken a bit of the fun out of it. A more recent idea is to design and sell t-shirts. All I need to do is get decent translations of a phrase into various languages (harder than it might seem, but there’s a good reason for this), create the art work (text plus some form of graphic), market, sell, make profit. Easy, if you do it, but will I?
