What types of things have you been paid for at least once that you could technically consider yourself a professional? I have been paid for pictures I have taken at an event and am currently on my first paid acting gig at a local group.

I did knit in my younger days and did sell a couple of sweaters.However, like most things hand made in order to make money you have to charge a lot of money and knitting is very time consuming :rose: :pumpkin: :peace: :wave:

I have made good money doing craft show with my hand painted gourds. also other crafts. But as time goes on my hands are getting worse and I am having to cut down on fine painting, can't hold tiny brushes or paint as well. although they still look great I see small mistakes. so am letting my hands rest for awhile. I also make and sold specialty pickles for a long time. another thing really hard on my hands. so now I just make watermelon pickles for hubby, family and friends.

I get paid for cake/cookie/decorating and baking. My profession is cake decorator in retail grocery store. I never went to school for it. In fact the art slowly developed. It wasn't my plan but it's a gift I've honed and choose to do 40+ hours per week. I also take orders outside my home. Now it's become a passion and I'm known all over town as "the cake lady."

At work, their workers did not know how or remember how to do the routine, I taught them everything.

I have done lots of stuff that I have enjoyed doing and have been paid for quite a few of them. However, I don't consider myself a professional in any of these fields.
