how to sell handmade crafts?
I crochet. I’ve made scarfs, pillows, blankets, small purses/ carring bags, a small coin purse, ahd some shawls. any ideas of how to sell the stuff. i would also maybe like some ideas of what to crochet. I’m also into sewing. Any sewing ideas? I would do a yard sale but i really don’t have much to sell.
Hi I have been making and selling my textile crafts for many years and the best results have come from having home parties or home craft sales. For the parties you invite all your friends, ask them to bring one friend with them. For home craft sales I would put small posters around my local shops, by putting leaflets in surrounding nieghbour’s letter boxes and a small ad in the local free ad paper. Make it an all day open sale, give yourself time for lunch and stay open a couple of hours in the evening for thos who cannot make it during the day.
I have made a lot of money this way, and people know that you are there, and I have now had orders for birthday presents and for general gifts throughout the year. There is little outlay and you are in the comfort of your own home.
Good luck
PS I have many ideas for small gifts that you could make. If you are interested please contact me at my Yahoo group Magical Threads where I am the owner of the group.
