From Hobby to Pro
Aug 22 2008, 8:35 AM EDT I understand how frustrating it can be to want to break into the scrapbooking world in a big way. I have found that it took me the same steps that it took me to become a professional artist, writer and spiritual healer. 1. Passion - you have to want it bad enough to do whatever it takes. 2. Education - being self-taught actually can work, but getting educated in any way that you can on the subject you are interested in helps a lot. 3. Practice, practice, practice and then let people give you honest opinions. 4. Build slowly. I started with a few basic scrapbooking supplies and slowly filled an entire room. Not something my husband is too happy about, but as empty-nesters, we had the extra rooms to spare. 5. Ask anyone who will listen for advice and network as much as you can. If you want more details, let me know. Good luck! 4 out of 4 found this valuable. Do you? |
