Home Based Craft Business Tips
Your Guide to Selling Crafts
Welcome to Inspiri, your home based craft business guide. You will find plenty of tips on selling crafts, and resources for building your home based craft business on this site.
Do you ask yourself questions like:
How do I choose a reliable, cost effective display tent for craft shows?
Where can I find good resources?
What goes into building a great craft show display booth?
How do I even get started creating a business plan?
What do I need to know to sell crafts online?
I wondered about all of those things (and more) when I started my own craft business several years ago.
I spent countless hours researching the best strategies for selling crafts. I learned a lot about what works (and what doesn't work) through experience, and I've been able to work with great mentors who directed me to excellent resources and information and saved me from making a lot of costly mistakes that new entrepreneurs commonly make.
On this site, I'll share everything I've learned about successfully selling crafts.

I have been fortunate to be able to build a business based on my own creativity. It has brought freedom, opportunities and joy that I didn't even imagine when my business was just an idea in my mind. I hope your own business also brings you all of the joy, rewards and success you dream of.
