Sarajane,

Got the issue - haven't read it yet, but I will try and do so tonight and let you know!

Thank you Lisa. I appreciate the comments you sent. I'm sorry the article did not suit your needs. Crafts Report Magazine has far more information along those lines, being specific to the subject. Sarajane

Coooooool! I will definitely buy it! I am pretty sure our local Barnes And Noble carries Belle Armoire.

Sarajane,

I thought it was a good first article, although a bit vague. That said, I think there are a ton of different topics you could write on/research, things like:

Selling wholesale Selling retail/direct Selling via commission (ie. galleries, etc.) Pricing/Overhead How to enter regular and juried shows Marketing Packaging & Display Patents/Copyright Teaching/Sharing technique Bookkeeping & inventory Financial reports Tax issues:getting an ID, filing, etc. Buying wholesale and how to find sources

I agree with you, Barbara, I didn't get a chance (yet) to get to the real nuts and bolts, but its coming! That was more in the line of the introductory "here we get ready to go" speech. And I'm copying your suggestions to my file; thank you very much! Sarajane

There are a lot of people who really are at the point of just starting as a business, as well as the people who've been doing shows forever and are in all the best galleries. I'm somewhere in between those points, but the fact I'm still in business after 20 years of selling art-wearables is pretty good, I think! Sarajane

You are welcome! I look forward to the next installment!

It is darn good! and I qualify as one of those 'right at the beginning' people, so I will try to find a copy of Belle Armoire ASAP. 'Bout time to subscribe, I think, if you will be a regular there.
