Help Make Pett's Originals a reality

Donation protected
I had to leave my job due to health reasons in August 2012 and have been unemployed ever since. During this time I have been trying to better myself with qualifications and courses and indulging my crafting hobbies which started out as a stress relief hobby and has now become a consuming passion of mine which I want to turn into a business idea and a full time job as believe me, it's no fun struggling on the pittance that is JSA especially as there is no other help available for my Husband and I as he works full time and we're barely able to make rent and pay the bills each month.

I started Pett's Originals as a means to sell my handmade jewellery and gifts and attend craft fairs, psychic fairs and local flea markets to sell my wares as well as having an online presence via Facebook and Etsy. I have had a lot of amazing feedback about my work and some regular customers but want to extend my travel radius by passing my driving test and purchasing new equipment for my next projects which include personalised gifts, cuddly toys and tiaras and fascinators. I also need to purchase more stands and displays and other items particularly if I want to start having regular market stalls. 

For example, it's going to take approximately
£400 to pass my driving test,
£1000 to get a car insured, taxed and back on the road.
£1000 to purchase a computerised embroidery machine with software so I can make custom patterns.
£500 to purchase more materials.
£500 to purchase stands and display pieces, a gazebo for outdoor events, several large folding tables.
£750 to pay for website hosting for 12 months.
£850 to pay event and pitch fees.
