Beaded Jewelry Home Business
What would be something that me and my friend could sell on etsy?
Me and my friend are into crafts and i would love for us to get closer and open a business on etsy making unique jewelry or anything home related. I just want it to be something that people would want to buy without a lot of experience needed.. OH! and i can’t work with thread. LMAO! I tried beading, knitting and sewing and all 3 of those drive me crazy! LMAO! Doesn’t leave many options does it? She was thinking maybe baskets and wreaths and stuff. I thought as far as the baskets, maybe we could do gift baskets as well. Please let me know your thoughts. I am 26 and she is 20. I think we could do pretty good at whatever we do. Please let me know what you think would be fun and what would sell at the same time. Thanks so much guys and gals.

Beading, knitting, and sewing are classic crafts, but that’s not all that’s available…
Wirecraft (making pretty designs out of bent wires), paper mache, paper crafts using some kind of unique paper (common examples include collectible cards, interesting but not valuable baseball cards, etc.), simple pottery, and drawn/painted art.
Etsy isn’t exactly professional art; if you’re concerned about creating stuff that haunts you, create a temporary Etsy account for selling stuff you’re not sure of, and give it a try.
The real secret is to START. To just try.
One good tool for sales, though, is to come up with a story for what you’ve made, or before you make it. For example, woot.com sells (effectively) junk, but they tell a GREAT story with every item. This drives sales, to the point that they were able to sell themselves off to Amazon. You don’t need to be that big, but telling a story connects with your audience, no matter the medium.
