So I got my starter kit in the mail yesterday! I was so excited at the thoughts of starting to work again. I made one whole piece in a half hour. It looks nothing like the sample. It was easy enough to make as long as you can measure and hot glue. I haven't used a hot glue gun in years it seems so its a bit stringy. I'm thinking that it might take some time to get this project approved. I'm kind of worried about that. Has anyone worked for them and if so how long did it take you to get approved on a project?

I was thinking about getting a kit from them but didn't know how legit they were. I'm sure your next piece will turn out like it is supposed to look. It only takes practice. I think I will order a kit in the next few days after checking out WAHM. Thanks for that tip.

If you go to this site...www.wahm.com...No Affiliation, they talk about this company and many more. It stands for Work At Home Moms, wahm.
You can get some advice and tips, plus information from other people who have worked on their projects. I know it's a legitamate company for sure, as I've seen other people who have worked for New England Crafters. I believe there's a whole section on this company on this website. Go to the message boards and check around. When I look for answers, this is where I go. Good Luck!

Thanks for the tip! I think it seems legit from what I have seen and heard. I have talked to someone on the phone multiple times from the company and they have been extremely helpful. They are usually good about getting back to my e mails too. I think as long as the starter kit costs doesn't turn you away it's going to be fine. The cost is refunded though after you finish so many pieces!
Have a great day :)
