Handmade or Crafted items

All of us have hobbies, and many people like to create something by themselves. I have many talented friends who make jewelry, who is sewing by themselves, who knit, and do a lot of other crafts. It is their hobby, and some of them sell their works online.

Many famous furniture companies started their business from small sellings, from their hobby. So, why don’t you monetize your hobby too?

All of us have old things at home, which we don’t use for a long time. We keep such things at home because we feel guilty about throwing these things away.
