OTSS Maker Circle – Monthly Maker Challenge
OTSS Maker Circle
A monthly extension of our Maker Challenge
If you’ve ever taken part in one of our Maker Challenges, you’ll recognise the heart of this.
The challenge that worked best wasn’t about themes, perfection or pressure.
It was the simple one.
Make something.
Post it.
The OTSS Maker Circle is an extension of that idea, slowed down and made sustainable for small business makers.
Not a rush.
Not a course.
Not about doing more.
Just a monthly rhythm that gives you a reason to create, use your blanks and share what you’ve made.
What you receive each month
As part of the OTSS Maker Circle, you’ll receive:
• A curated OTSS craft set at a heavily subsidised maker rate, including project ideas and prompts
• A monthly talk-through video where Debbie shares ideas and variations
• A QR-coded digital maker guide you can access on your phone
• Optional access to the Maker Circle idea helper if you get stuck - The Maker Circle Idea Helper is a private chat assistant you can use anytime to get project ideas, design variations, pricing suggestions and content prompts based on the items in your box.
• Entry into monthly maker prizes for participants
• A 6th box free as a loyalty reward for makers who follow through
Each box is designed to help you finish something, not just collect supplies.
The making and sharing rhythm
This is not about being an influencer or creating perfect content.
The focus is making.
Each month we gently encourage you to:
• Complete the two guided projects
• Share one video featuring at least one project
• Share one photo per project
• Tag Only The Sweet Stuff when you post
Monthly prizes are drawn from makers who participate and share during the month.
The content is a by-product of the making, just like our Maker Challenge.
Who this is for
The OTSS Maker Circle is a great fit if you:
• Have loved our Maker Challenges
• Run a small business or side hustle
• Enjoy creating but want gentle structure
• Already use OTSS blanks
• Want a reason to keep making consistently
• Are happy to share what you create
Who this is not for
This may not be the right fit if you:
• Do not want to create or share content
• Prefer one-off boxes with no follow-through
• Are looking for a purely educational course
• Are not comfortable posting your work
Loyalty rewards
Makers who consistently participate and remain active in the Maker Circle will receive:
• Entry into monthly prizes
• Gifts in every 5th box, just because :)
Maker Circle Plus includes larger hero blanks or extended project options for makers who want to go a little further each month.
