Mom needs easy craft ideas

Question

I would like to find some easy and new craft ideas to give as gifts or possibly sell for some side money. I am good at no-sew blankets but would like some different ideas. I also work at a dance studio and would love to find some ideas to sell to the studio's boutique.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Are there any books that are good?

Answer 1

Beading?? beads come in all sizes and there are also the little charms that can be incorporated into the designs. I am thinking since you work at a dance studio the charms of ballet slippers, dancers in tutus, etc. Worked on memory wire would be so totally awesome.

Answer 2

Um.....One thing I know that could make you some money would be making your own jewelry and selling it. I know lots of people who have done that and they made real good money.

Answer 3

Check out Cafe Press online-you can have your own store for 50.00 a year or go for the free one. Easy uploads and fun, quality items. I've had mine for 3 years now-really happy with site. What about tees and such from there foe your dance studio? They also have journals, cards, pillows, tiles etc....

What about trying quilting.  I am self taught and it's easy to do.  I can be done by hand or machine.  Check out my site:http://www.appliquequiltdesigns.com for more information.
