Dom welcomes willow weaver Dea and artist Gemma into his life-changing Maker’s Marquee. Dea, who has chronic fatigue syndrome, autism and ADHD, dreams of being able to build a home business that suits her life. Mentor Eddie can see she has the skill to succeed, but can Dea make her pieces fast enough and market them with the confidence needed to turn her hobby into a full-time job?\n\nAfter being told art doesn’t pay by a careers adviser at school, Gemma gave up on her artistic dreams and became a teacher. She continued to create art as a hobby, and after some recent success selling her art at a market, she’s hoping mentor Sharon can help her finally become a full-time artist. With just eight weeks to show they can make their dreams a reality, Dea and Gemma must work around the clock to build new lives for themselves.
