One sure thing about being self employed...you are guaranteed to have the very best boss you ever had! ;)

I am self employed. Now EVERYONE is my boss! Before I only had one. Funny how that works out.

It will cost about $250 to start all this... I have to have county AND city licenses... and it costs MORE because it's out of our home... We'll see... I just have no income right now. I know ebay is available - and Etsy - I just wanted to work face to face with my customers more... but if I must go the internet way - so be it. I know the discounts and all... just thought I could make a buck or two to help out with groceries.. don't need to nor want to make a living at it - never expect it to get that big. But then again - who knows!! :)

All I had to do is get a tax number and made up a name to do trades days here in Texas. Some years I do not sell anything so I do my sells tax yearly and I do that online. But I have it in case I need it. I also show some of my crochet at a gallery locally, so this covers me in case the tax folks want to check on people. I have been checked once since I have been doing trades day. I do about 2 a year with a friend and basically that is to spend time with them.
