Personal vs Commercial Use

Do you know the difference?

Personal Use Only

When you download a free font or SVG file, and it says for PERSONAL USE ONLY, that’s exactly what it means. You can only use that font or SVG, for personal use. You can use it on projects for yourself, or on something you give away. You can not charge for items made from those files. No profit can be made.

Commercial Use Only

When you download a free font or SVG file that says COMMERCIAL USE you can use those files on projects you plan to profit from. The designer is permitting you to use their design, or font, to create physical products that you can sell. You cannot resell the actual file, but you can use the medium of your choice to create items that others can purchase from you. *It’s very important that you check the designer’s terms of use policy and/or the terms of use policy of the platform you download your design from.

Always read the Terms of Use

Generally when you purchase a font or SVG file that would allow you to create a physical product to sell, but I have seen designers state “for personal use only” in their terms of use description. ALWAYS read the terms of use, whether it is a free file or one you are purchasing. If it doesn’t state it’s for commercial use you can reach out to the designer and ask if you can purchase the commercial license.

A bit about me.

Hi, my name is Tracy, and I’m so excited to have you here!

Main Road Digital Creations was born in March of 2020 after completing an online class to design my own digital files. I have always loved creating, and after designing years ago with pencil and paper, I’m excited to now be able to use all this technology to share my files with you digitally!

Let’s rewind a few years- I purchased my Cricut cutting machine in 2017, and like most of us with a new toy, I went searching for information, ready to tackle this unique crafting style. I watched YouTube, scoured Pinterest, and joined a few Facebook groups. I learned all I could about different types of vinyl, how to apply it, how to cut it, what HTV (Heat Transfer Vinyl) is, what kind of transfer tape is best, and what permanent vinyl is vs. temporary vinyl.

So many things to learn, and I wanted to learn them all!

Someone in one of the groups I was in posted a picture of an acrylic keychain, and instantly I wanted to know more! You know the feeling….Oooooo what is that? How did you make it? Where can I learn? Is it hard? What do you use to do that? It’s so pretty! I want to do that!!!!

I was hooked!

I was having fun making lots of things and doing what we all do, giving those things to friends and family. Hearing all the Ooos and Ahhhs is terrific for the ego-even if they didn’t love it, they would never let you know. I practiced for a long time, wasted lots of products, found a new supply to try, wasted more products, researched, watched videos, asked questions, and wasted more products. Haha. This hobby definitely has a learning curve to it. After lots of practice, I was finally confident enough to share my creations…

And that started the first journey…

Main Road Creations is where I began the physical product journey. I started posting my creations on Facebook and Instagram, sharing what I had made with co-workers and Facebook friends. The keychains did well, then I added in badge reels; they were a hit…and again, I was hooked! I couldn’t wait to try new things and quickly figured out several different ways to decorate and seal this new acrylic blank obsession! I wanted to make designs other than the SVG files that came with the acrylic blank I purchased. I started by taking shapes in Design Space and slicing, welding, merging, and changing different elements to make my piece unique. I was so excited when fellow crafters in the groups I was in asked me how I did a specific design or did I have the file to sell…what? ME? …well, that’s all it took…I set a new goal to figure out how to design my own SVG files…then came Main Road Digital Creations!

And now you’re here, on my next journey with me!

I’m so glad!~ Join me as I share my crafting experiences with you, maybe help you learn a new technique, definitely have some laughs, and share lots of Free designs!

I can’t wait to craft with you!

Thank You for being here! My heart swells knowing you are enjoying my designs! ♥ Please remember, kindness comes in so many different ways- a smile, a kind word, a compliment, respect, appreciation, politeness, the list goes on and on- Kindness is always the right thing to do- so when in doubt, just be kind.
