Tax law changes

This sounds more like you have a business and not a hobby.  For a business you can subtract your expenses from your income so you will only be taxed on the net income.  However, you will also have to pay Self-Employment taxes which cover both the employer and employee portions for Social Security and Medicare taxes.  Then one-half of your SE taxes are entered on the tax return as an adjustment to income, lowering your Adjusted Gross Income.

Business income and expenses are reported on Schedule C which is part of and included with your federal tax return, Form 1040.
