Hare Krsna Prabhuji,
PAMHO.
May I humbly suggest something - we all work outside and earn money. We use that money to donate to ISKCON and serve in various capacities, also pursue our interests like study sanskrit or do a bhakti shastri or bhakti vaibhava course. We do not depend on ISKCON to earn money. THe idea is that a grihasta supports the temple, not the other way round.
You can use your skills very nicely in the service of Krsna. You can get a job with any fashion designer, I think. Then you can design dresses and background cloth for the deities. For that you need to contact your local temple and take the specifications and colour or design preference (to maybe blend it with their dress on say any festival day).
Haribol,
YOur servant,
Rashmi
