And I'm going to have to post about this on my blog! I've seen other programs...I'm eager to try this one out. Thank you so much for the tip!

Terri, I understand..

One of the "to-do" lists that appears on my blog almost weekly is:

Clean the Studio.

Having enough discipline to first clean, then inventory, and third keep up on new purchases? It would be a major shift for me.

However, if I were selling my crafts, I'd need to do this. The documentation for tax purposes would make this invaluable. And the author is in that circumstance.

Besides, I can imagine that I will wake up tomorrow with an uncontrollable desire to completely document my crafts.

That's a great idea as far

That's a great idea as far as the program goes. The hardest thing would be to actually be organized enough to enter all the necessary info.....something that a lot of crafters aren't so great about! I love making jewelry, but you should see my workspace right now! It's a "little" disorganized. I have lots of compartment and places to put things, but on a daily basis I don't really keep up with it. It only gets straightened up when company is coming, and sometimes not even then.

Organized Craft

Sister Diane pointed out a project organizer for crafters.

CraftMemo Helps You:
* Organize & keep track of all your craft goodies, projects & suppliers.
* Generate detailed lists of your inventory, out of stock items, what you need for a project and where to purchase them from.
* Plan what supplies you need & calculate the cost for your upcoming projects.

While I have a friend or two who might appreciate this program for their strictly hobby interests, this would be invaluable for those crafters earning a little money with sales on Etsy or through a couple shops.
