How has zazzle changed your life? *	Zazzle has not only given me an outlet to showcase my art, but a means to supplement my family's income and still stay home with my five children. I love that I can tell people I am a commercial artist and graphic designer. I am doing what I've always wanted. I am my own boss and Zazzle gives me the freedom to set my own hours. It's a great feeling when my friends and family tell me how proud they are of me and how far I've brought my business and my art since opening my first store in 2008. I wouldn't trade my time on Zazzle for the world.
