ADDICTED TO VINYL?
I am!!
ALL the colors, ALL the types, ALL the feels!!
Vinyl, vinyl, vinyl...
I used my birthday money to buy me a Silhouette machine!
NOT an original idea, I found out!
It seems as though today EVERYONE has either a cricut or a silhouette ! I was thinking I could make shirts and various vinyl creations, as a side gig, to my stay at home mom job of keeping other babies, besides my own! It started out good, you know showing stuff I made on FaceBook, getting orders from my friends & family, of course I wasn't ( and still don't ) charge as much as I should. Mostly because people don't want to pay what it's "worth".
Especially when you can get "vinyl" shirts so cheap online somewhere, or at Target & Walmart!
SO I love doing custom creations, that maybe you can't find at Target or Walmart! Of course I've done shirts you could find at these places, but the difference is on a shirt that you like, in the color you like, so that makes it a custom shirt! I've also done lots of other projects, other than shirts.
Here's the link to my album on Facebook:
What people don't understand is you have to buy lots of accessories to go along with the cutting machine. Not to mention tons of vinyl, to have colors & types on hand, you know.....in case you get an order! It never fails, I don't have THE color a customer wants, so I'll have to order it. Well the shipping on one sheet of vinyl is insane! That alone makes you go in the hole on a project! So of course I order the minimum amount to get FREE shipping, hoping one day I'll get to use all this vinyl I'm purchasing!
It's a lot of fun, but it can be an expensive hobby!
I just love to craft, and my busy schedule doesn't leave me a lot of time to be as creative as I would like!
