She put her flyer out, and it opened up a new revenue stream.

That ONE flyer created $1280 extra income per month for her and her family.

After working jobs with little to no flexibility, Camille was desperate for some independence and freedom to do things the way SHE wanted to do them.

Then she started her kids crafting club and everything changed.

When Stefania had her second child, she knew that what she really wanted was a fulfilling creative career that would allow her to be at home for her children. 

She started teaching art around her dining room table. Today she runs her own successful online art club membership.

 Mae owns a side-hustle arts & crafts club that “feels like a playdate” with her kids. 

With a super supportive family behind her, Mae proves that you really can have it all, making extra money with fully-booked craft classes every Saturday whilst having a ball! 

With 4 children and 12 pets (including a pig!), Makayla started from scratch and built a thriving club in less than a year! She now runs classes for multiple groups of 30 kids at a school, as well as at a horse farm, at summer camps, and online for underprivileged kids in India.

Artist and mom of 2, Alison, wanted her boys to have a more art-infused education, as their school did not place much focus on art. So she started homeschooling her boys and launched the Art Crate, a mobile art studio (that offers kits too) where kids are invited to innovate and learn through play.
