SEWING BUSINESS

"Got a sewing machine? I stumbled into alterations business after one ad in July and can't fend off the demand. Highly recommend it."

ANYTHING WITH TEMPLATES

"Templates like knitting, crochet patterns, 3D prints can be created once, downloaded for a fixed price. Same with art, T-shirt designs."

Can you dog-watch? We charge $35/day, $60/2 dogs, $80/3 dogs(max). It's more affordable and homely than boarding facilities.
