In the Wild Wild West of Print on Demand (POD) services, it's no secret that Printful often stands out for its premium price tag. Initially, I turned away and tried to find a cheaper alternative, but as I began to delve deeper into other POD services, I found myself returning to Printful to build my brand and my store. Despite it's higher than average costs, it has a lot of benefits that justify the investment. While I'm only just getting started, I'm confident that I've made

I’ve been an artist my whole life. I can’t recall ever not making some form of art, even as a child. I grew up living in the middle of nowhere, confined to a tiny box: my bedroom. Here is where my desires, my passions, my sexuality, my artistic nature, everything that made me, ME, was buried deeper each day until I burst… my bedroom was a collage of paintings on the walls, posters, pictures, lights, stickers, drawings… a real kaleidoscope of untamed artistic explosions in a l

These vibrant gatherings of talented artisans provide a unique platform for showcasing and selling handmade go

Ahhh, social media. The necessary evil of today’s world! For many, it’s exciting and essential to the success of their business, to others, it’s a mystery and unimportant. Wherever you fall on this spectrum, one thing is for certain, social media can be a great place to connect with others, grow your business, and find inspiration, but it can also become a never ending black hole that sucks you in and leads your inspiration and positivity to an early, and very shallow, grave.

Gone are the days when an “artist” was a person who just creates art. There was a time where someone could make a living doing only that. The perception of the "artist life" has changed over time. For so long, it looked like this: Living in near poverty, rebelling against society, staring at the canvas in torment, waiting for inspiration, pouring their entire soul onto the canvas like they just gave birth. Okay, maybe that's a little bit extreme, but it's typically how the ge
