When I was younger, I dream of having a corporate job, wearing high heels and conquer the world. But after several years of being married and being a full time homemaker, I just realized working on administrative careers is not what I could do for a long period of time. I am happy with what I am doing now. And I could always wear high heels anyway:)!
Being a homemaker is a wonderful job! They say it’s the best…do you agree? It is a 24/7 job. We do get paid with much LOVE from the family.
A lot of women nowadays consider staying home to take care of the family but sometimes still have the yearning to contribute financially.
Well, if the homemakers is excellent in one homemaking skill, then they might just help in earning extra income for the family.
One hobby that might bring an income to a woman at home is cooking or baking. Cooking and baking are wonderful hobbies. One can make dishes, cakes and pastries and sell it to friends and relatives for special occasions.
Sewing is also a homemaking skill that can come handy. I have met some homemakers that are making quilts that are just works of art. These can be made inexpensively by recycling leftover fabrics into squares and other shapes and artistically arranging the pieces.
And of course, if the homemaker loves writing, she could always try to earn money by blogging, freelance writing and many many more.
I’m a working mom, and was once a homemaker… comparing the 2, it’s true that it’s much better to be a homemaker as you make your own schedule, but financially speaking, it’s better to be a working mom.
Currently I work and blog, both for financial reasons.

I’m now a homemaker too due to personal reasons. There seems to be endless chores.
At least I get to blog and attend events.
