Results: Creative Outlet
Published on 12/21/2015
I've had a challenging year. But it helps to have a creative outlet to help me unwind. I am an expert crocheter, halfway decent singer and self-taught in web design. So I wanted to see what creative outlets other Tellwut members may have.

I crochet mostly for my household, gifts or charity, but I occasionally sell at craft fairs. My singing is limited to choir and my web design has mainly been my personal web site, though I designed a church web site once (unpaid). Have you been fortunate enough to make money from any of your creative outlets? Yes, my creative outlet is my job!
