Then if I make a bunch of somethings and they don't sell within two years I end up donating them to worth causes.
You are NOT alone in that.. I tried many many things and also paying myself like a $1 a product.. but I'm doing a bit better now. It takes a while before you cut a profit, but keep at it!! it WILL happen!!!!!!! I WILL find that niche that will bring in more $$$ !!! its a good thing my friends and family like my work, cause I have backups as gifts if things don't sell :) I have started a list of people and places to advertise through with minimal minimal expense... need that expense for possible more "ingredients" to make more!!! :)
