As a painted tree vendor I have a space that I pay rent on every 1st of the month. I any able to create labels and gain money from the things I create as an artist. Right now I am selling all handmade jewelry including earrings, bracelets, and necklaces. I also make crystal flower arrangements, and things like key chains, and car stickers. My spot is located upstairs on shelving. I pay $65 a month and they also take a percentage out of my sales.

As a freelance photographer I take pictures for special occasions, like senior portraits, engagement/proposal's, newborn shoots and more. I have been doing this for a little over a year now I have not had many clients but I have also had opportunity's to share my skills with my college. I was able to take photos for some art events and even the inspiration photos for a mural our art department started. This also open a new way of working for me. I was able to work as a photographer in chesterfield town center mall taking pictures of kids with santa.

As a vendor at Hoos Pickin I was renting a monthly wall spot. When I had my space there I mainly sold my handmade jewelry. I made things like necklaces, earrings, bracelets, and rings. There I paid $20 a month and she also took a percentage out of my sales. Unfortunately I did have to leave here because of it closing.
