After much thought I think i've decided to start start selling some of my more detailed tutorials, and today I thought i'd show you one of them that I hope to have finished soon :D. I have several more in the works and a few more in my head waiting to get out, lol. Some of them will be more detailed cupcake toppers and some will just be miniatures that I love to make.
This has been kind of a difficult decision though, because I know that without the help of all of the free information that i've found on the internet, I wouldn't know as much as I do today about the art of caking. That being said i'm a stay-at home mom and my wonderful hubby works 2 jobs to keep it that way. So i'm always trying to come up with ideas to bring money in and still be able to stay home with my girls while taking some of the pressure off of him, and these tutorials do take time! So I figured why not use my talent and bring some much needed income into our household while providing all of you lovely people with some cool tutorials!
Let me know what you think by voting over on the right hand side! This one will run around $5 american dollars and will include the tea set and pastries. I'm hoping to have it up in the next month or so!
But don't worry the tuesday toppers will stay free!!
great idea!!!
ReplyDeletethese look so cute. Great idea at least you get paid for your talent
ReplyDeleteI think it is a great idea. Look at hoe Donna Dewberry got started. There are also ladies who do seminars in their homes or at an inexpensive location. You oculd always doa tutorial weekend once and a while.
ReplyDeleteI think it's a great idea! Best of luck! I'm sure I will sing up for a few in the future! All of us SAHM's can support each other!!! :)
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize until I read ll the way through your post that you MADE ALL of that. I thought it was a tiny china set. I'll be sure to pay closer attention! ;)
Maybe even try some of your designs with ploymer clay. I bet you could get more buisness that way as well! :)
ReplyDeleteI hope it works out for you! I'd love to find a way to make money doing this too! It's so hard with all the red tape. Way to go!
ReplyDeleteI' behind you all the way. We cakers have to support each other!!
ReplyDeleteI think it is a great idea to sell your tutorials. I am in the same situation you are, always trying to find a way to make money. I don't have the time sometimes to look in books for step by step instructions on cake topper, I will be your first client. Can we use Pay Pal account to pay?
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about trying to cut costs and bring in more income! I love your tutorials and I am with you all the way! If you have to charge for some, then so be it! It is your time that you are spending making these, and time away from your family, so why shouldn't you get something monetary out of it! You go girl!!! I look forward to seeing the first tutorial that you have for sale and I will definitely be buying it!. Oh ya, PayPal would be awesome that way you get payment right away, and we get the tutorial right away :-) It`s win win ..... haha
ReplyDeleteThank you so much everyone for the support! and yes I plan on using paypal!!
