5.0 out of 5 stars FULL OF GOOD READS!, December 17, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Decorative Painting For Fun & Profit (Paperback)
Whether you're new to decorative craft painting or are an advanced painter who wants to take your craft public, there is so much in this book! A lot of my friends are crafters and not painters --and they tell me the business information and the author's sense of humor is a treat that will entertain and help all crafters!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful!, December 13, 1999

Shirley Thomas (Fredericksburg, VA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Decorative Painting For Fun & Profit (Paperback)
The tips and hints sprinkled throughout this book along with Susan's experiences are excellent. But don't let the name fool you! The sound and innovative business advice in this book could apply to any craft business. So as a non-painter I recommend this book to ANYONE in the crafting business!
