I ran my own craft business for over 30 years.

I started my own craft business when I was 16.  I made various crafts and sold them at craft fairs.  I had to keep track of my inventory, cost of goods and was able to make a moderate profit.  I did all my own bookkeeping and filed all necessary tax reporting.  I was able to raise 2 children with this income and helped to support my family income.
