INSPIRING FOR HERB ENTREPENEURS!

If you dream of ever selling herbal crafts this book is a must-have with lots of ideas for products to offer, and how to package them, display them, and market them, and what imporatant information to include on the packaging. It contains recipes, and detailed easy-to-follow instructions for all of the projects included, plus discusses the different options to market them to the public. I'm planning on opening my own herb business and I found this book to be very helpful, I hope you do too.

A must for the starting herbal entrepreneur!

I have read and re-read this book countless times in the past few years. Just today I picked it up again, to look more closely at a design pattern. I wish that Alyce Nadeau would write another book on selling Herbal Crafts. I'm sure that she has even more wonderful products to tell us about. For now, you will be as delighted as I am by this book. It is easy to read and easy to refer to when needed.I am just starting out my own herbal crafts business, Treasures Planted, and will be using many of Alyce's patterns. I'll even use her directions for my craft show display! I highly recommend this book to herbal crafters and budding herbal entrepreneurs.
