One has to be careful what they wish for.
Life can go along just fine when you go off to your job, put in your hours, come home and take care of all the business of a family or whatever your situation and then getting the chance to sit down and spend some time with your hobby.
Not everyone gets to spend time every day on it but it is so much fun when you do and you find yourself relaxing and unwinding after a day, a week or even a month, it doesn't matter.
That is why you have a hobby.
For instance, you don't do Fimo clay projects because they make you tense and irritable.
Hobbies are for relaxation and fun.
You may even get to the place where you are extremely good at it and everyone on your gift list is so pleased when they get a handmade gift from you.
Your friends and family may even tell you things like, "you really should sell this stuff.
" Beware of what you wish for because you may take your hobby that is fun and relaxing and turn it into something like a "job.
" Now that isn't necessarily a bad thing but you must be fully aware of the consequences of changing your passion from a hobby to your source of income.
Knowing how to use polymer clay for fun may be different than knowing how to use it for profit.
Going off to the hobby web site to get warm glass supplies may be different when you have to do it in order to fill a job order.
Before you did it when you had the money and life was good.
As a source of income, you may have to go to the web site when you don't necessarily have the money but you still need to produce objects to sell.
This is not to say don't do it.
There is not greater reward than to get paid to do something with passion, just go into it with your eyes wide open and understand what it is you are wishing for.
