From hobby to business: 5 types of needlework on which you can earn money

Many women have some hobbies, and they are often associated with needlework. Someone knits, someone embroiders with a cross, someone creates amazing objects from improvised materials. And most talented artists do this only for the soul, for themselves and friends, because they do not know how to properly monetize their hobby.

In this article, we want to tell you about five types of needlework that can bring additional income, and maybe even become a life's work!

Fashionable florariums have become popular not so long ago, but the demand for them among buyers is growing rapidly. Therefore, you have every chance to "break into" this market with florariums of your own production.

For those who do not know, the florarium is a closed glass container designed for breeding and keeping plants. Often, whimsical tropical plants are grown in them, for example, mini-fern, alocasia and fittonia.

In addition, various interesting types of moss, small violets, croton, cacti and succulents will look appropriate in the "aquarium for plants".

Often, florariums are filled with miniature interior items or create plant compositions in them that resemble natural landscapes. Well, who doesn't want to have a personal exotic garden at home?

All that remains for you is to master this technique (and this is not so difficult), make a florarium and put it up for sale. There will certainly be buyers.

If all your friends and acquaintances say that you get great pastries and confectionery, perhaps you should offer it to a wider range of people?

After all, many people love homemade sweets, not store-bought ones, but not everyone is endowed with the talent to make them independently.

In addition, it is quite simple to find customers among fans of sweets: place ads about your home confectionery on all available sites, keep active in social networks, ask friends to share your page, buy ads…

The only question is, are you ready to devote so much time and effort to this case? If yes, then go ahead, go ahead!

Products made of clay and ceramics will be relevant at any time. After all, every home has plates, cups and other kitchen utensils created from these materials.

And now imagine that instead of a banal mug, you will have such a cute work of art! Wouldn't it be nicer to drink coffee in the morning?

Therefore, people often buy such dishes as gifts and souvenirs.

And you can also create various decorations, flower pots, candlesticks and other household items from clay. To start mastering this art, you can buy a briquette of ordinary clay in a store of goods for creativity. If you like sculpting with your hands, sign up for pottery courses, where you will be taught other exciting things.

Recently, it has become very popular to sew and knit toys created according to sketches (read: kalyakam-malakam) children. After all, what child does not want his fairy-tale character to come to life and appear before him in the form of a voluminous soft toy?

Parents are ready to give a lot to please their child, so they are happy to order such fakes.

At first glance, they seem awkward and easy to perform, but in fact, only a talented person with a good imagination can cope with such a task. If you just belong to such, you can safely test your strength in this direction of art.

Recently, products made not from wool, but from knitted yarn, have been very popular, since they can perfectly store the shape and serve as caskets, handbags, baskets and other household items.

In addition, cozy socks-slippers can be knitted from knitted fabric.

And for those who are just getting acquainted with this type of needlework, a huge plus will be that the yarn is very thick, and you can work with it even without knitting needles and a hook! Yes, yes, you can just weave baskets and other household trifles with your hands. Master classes on the manufacture of such products can be easily found on the Internet.

Moreover, if you want, you do not even need to spend money on materials! You can make a knitted thread yourself by cutting into unnecessary T-shirts and connecting them together. The ideal option is to practice and hone the technique, and only then make products from primary yarn and put them on sale.

And you can sell these and similar products on specialized sites, for example, Livemaster.ru, Luckytoys.ru, In-dee.ru, Mega-grad.ru, Etsy.com. In addition, you can create a page in a social network that will become your personal store, or publish ads on free boards.
