Greeting
Cards
With ordinary printed greeting
cards at the store costing
upwards of $5 each, wouldn’t it
be nice to buy a handmade
card for the same price?
No one will be able to resist your cute,
one-of-a-kind greeting cards. Swing by a
craft store to pick up cardstock and scrapbook
paper. Don’t forget to choose an assortment of
accessories, like ribbons and buttons! You’d be surprised
by how stickers can really amp up the look of a card.
Also try using metallic markers or calligraphy pens to give your
handwriting an extra oomph. You can create and sell cards
on an individual basis, or you can sell them in packs of several.
You’ll get to come up with new designs as holidays
come up throughout the year. It’s a great way to stay
creative and make some extra dollars.
Painted
Bottles
What do you do with empty glass bottles? Turn
them right into a classy, colorful decoration.
These are self-explanatory, as all you have
to do is paint the bottles however you’d
like. You’ve got different options of paint
types to use. Spray paint can create a cool
ombre look. Or make some stripes by
wrapping tape around the glass, painting
over the tape with acrylic, and carefully
removing the tape to reveal the untouched
stripes. Maybe even paint it with chalkboard
paint so people can doodle on them. There are
so many options, and they all can be completely
customizable to your customers.
