Craft, Inc.

On Ariel’s Nightstand:
Craft, Inc.
Turn Your Creative Hobby Into a Business
By Meg Mateo Ilasco

Okay, so it’s not entirely true that this book is on my nightstand. I heard about it and knew that it would be the perfect birthday present for a friend. Of course I realized this the night before her birthday and had to call half a dozen bookstores before I found one with a copy. Once I had it in hand, I promptly took it home and read it cover to cover. So I guess you could say it was on my nightstand for one night. It’s well written, extremely practical, and inspiring. The book design is also gorgeous. I highly recommend it and plan on getting another copy for myself.
