From Handmade to Digital: How I Found Freedom (And How You Can Too)

From Handmade to Digital: How I Found Freedom (And How You Can Too) From Crafting to Creating Freedom

Let’s rewind for a second.

I started out hand-making candles and T-shirts, juggling it all while working full-time in healthcare and raising two incredible boys as a single mom.

The crafts were cute. The passion was real. But the burnout? Even more real.
I needed more than extra cash — I needed a way out of the time-for-money trap.

The Game-Changer: Digital Products

One day, I asked myself: “What if I could get paid without having to physically make and ship every product?”

That question led me to the world of digital products — and my business hasn’t been the same since.

Here’s why I made the switch:

  •  Create once, sell on repeat

  •  No inventory, shipping, or late-night crafting

  •  Work from anywhere, anytime

  • Endless potential to grow

Digital products gave me something I never had before: time freedom.

Why Digital Products Matter in 2025

People are waking up.
We’re realizing that the old way of working 40+ hours a week just to survive isn’t cutting it anymore.

Here’s why digital products are the new wave:

  •  Passive income: Sell while you sleep

  •  Global reach: Help more people, without more effort

  •  Low startup costs: Start with what you have

  •  Share your story: Turn your skills into impact

If you’ve ever said, “I just need a way to make extra money without working overtime” — this is it.

What I Create Now (And How It Can Help You)

At Lori’s Custom Creations, I now focus on done-for-you digital products designed to take the guesswork out of getting started.

I make:

  • Pre-made eBooks

  •  Journals + planners

  •  Templates and guides

Whether you’re ready to start your own business or you’re just curious — these digital tools are made for everyday people with a dream.

You don’t need to be techy. You just need a push and a plan.

The Bottom Line

Digital products changed my life — plain and simple.

I’m still a mom. Still working. But now, I’m also building a business that creates income and impact — on my own terms.

And you can too.
