There are affiliate links in this post. A lot of hobbies come with a lot of expenses. Cross stitch can be rather affordable! Floss is often around $0.50 per skein even for the name brand stuff. When I started out, I went through Vipon and got a coupon code to buy a big cross stitch beginners kit that had 50 skeins (plus a few pieces of aida cloth, needles and a few other supplies) for about $8!

I was sent products from Thompson Tee. All opinions are my own. At one time Ryan had played with the idea of doing videography for income on the side.
