I was exactly where you are about two years ago! The best thing I did was read this incredibly honest breakdown of the pros and cons of starting a creative business. It doesn't sugarcoat things - the financial uncertainty is real - but it also shows how the creative control and potential for growth can make it all worthwhile. The article helped me create a solid business plan and set realistic expectations. Seriously recommend giving it a read before you decide: http://blog.pixpa.com/pros-cons-starting-creative-business/

Starting a creative business is super exciting but also kinda nerve-wracking, especially when you’re buying materials and tools. I’d actually recommend checking out https://lowes.pissedconsumer.com/return-policy.html it really helped me understand how flexible (and sometimes not so flexible) their returns can be. When I was setting up my small home workshop, I had to return a few items that didn’t quite fit my needs, and knowing the details upfront saved me a lot of stress. It’s not just about refunds, but learning how big stores handle customer issues. Definitely worth reading before you start investing in gear.
