My helpful side hustles
image edited with canva by me
Hello everyone, welcome to my blog, it's been a while, I've so much missed the blockchain all courtesy of the hustle as a fashion designer, we hardly have time anymore due to deadlines we have to meet up with, so no customers gets dissapointed with their Christmas clothes not delivered on time.
Trust the hive learners community to always come up with tempting relatable topics that you can't afford to skip because it's all about us, so today, I will be writing about my passive income, which I like to refer to as a side hustle.
In today's world, most people no longer depend on one particular source of income, no matter how much you are earning, because the more you earn, the more you spend, , having multiple streams of income helps you create a balance to some extent in your financial lives, I say to some extent because we can never truly satisfy all our wants and need, we just do the best we can, to be able to afford that best, one source of income might not be enough to foot the bills and savings, especially due to the increase/ high cost of things around us, the inflation is so bad these days that without even being told, your brain starts racking for new ways to support your main income.

Fabrics sales
For me, as a fashion designer, what I do to support my income is selling of fabrics, I go to the market to source for them, I also have contacts of wholesalers, I get pictures of their readily available fabrics , post them online on my social media handles, I also have them displayed at a specific location, so far, this business of mine has been booming, especially this festive season. I make Sure to get catchy and trending fabrics around my locality not even limited to feminine fabrics, I made sure to add male fabrics too because they pay more, O source for fabrics with beautiful designs and quality.p0
Sewing consumes lots of time, it can also be very stressful at times, but this fabric selling side hustle of mine is neither, and I still earn quite well from it, in addition, it has also help in boosting my sewing income, there are times when new customers patronize me, I use that opportunity to tell them I sew too, most times, they end up sewing the already bought fabrics with me.

My Hive earnings
This post cannot be complete without adding hive, I find hive as a wonderful place to earn with less stress too, all I need is just the time, creating quality contents, also engaging more, with that I see my wallet adding up, so hive is also my another side hustle with less stress too.
With the above sources of income, I've been able to maintain a healthy income, also beating most of my expenses, savings included, without getting broke, also holding my income here on hive this bear season is easier, it won't have been if not for other hustle, so I always advice anyone as long as you are already an adult always try to have a side hustle. If you are single, it's even a plus as you don't have children to take care of yet, so hustle now, save, be prudent and you will see yourself meeting up your financial goals.
This post is in response to the hive learners weekly contest, week 40 edition 1.
Thank you for giving me your time❤❤
Another reason to stay single forever lol. Good luck with your mentioned side hustles
Haha😁😁, please don't stay single forever, thank you for stopping by dear
Hello there! I hope you’re good.
It is nice that you have a side hustle that puts money in your wallet. I’ve heard so many things about fabric sellers. Although I don’t know much about them, what I do know is that it is a good side hustle.
Thanks for sharing.
It's a good side hustle and an advantage for me as a designer, people can't do without wearing clothes na😀,
I appreciate you stopping by, thank you
Side hustles makes you independent and free. I'm happy to know your own side hustle
It sure do, I'm glad too
Thank you for stoping by😉
As an adult, I don't suggest you stick to one side hustle because of so many needs you have to attend to. When we have many side hustles which brings passive income for us, we would definitely have savings for the future while we spend to meet our needs.
Rightly said sis, even with the side hustle, it can sometimes be difficult, I wonder how adult who do just one job cope.
Thanks for this helpful comment.
They can't continue to cope oo especially with bills growing each fucking day 😅
Nice one. I love what you do and your passion in it. Side hustle is the way forward. Depending solely on one source of income cannot be enough.
It cannot o, even double income see is by grace.
Thanks for being here bro.
You are sure doing great selling fabrics as a side income dear.
Keep doing your best.
Thank you sis😊
Omo... Having more than one sources of income is tasking indeed. You need to figure out a way to balance both sides of you life, and still do it in a way that wont affect other aspects of your life. It is not easy at all.
Thank you for sharing this with us.
It's really not easy o, now, my main sewing job is affecting my time here on hive now, it's a phase sha, balancing tends to go off and on, truth be told.
As a fashion designer who regularly have customers coming in and out of your store, you have a wonderful side Hustle to compliment your tailoring work, because customer can easily pick up one and still sew it from you.
Hive is another blessings I can testify to and I'm glad to know it's helping you out as well.
Yea, adding fabric sales has really been of a great advantage to my sewing job,
Hive! Hive!! Hive!!! A great platform to earn from too, I kind of feel bad at times now because of the lack of time at the moment, now I just pop in and out, hopefully soon the time will return
