Vintage Crochet

What are some cool artsy things that are relatively easy to make that I can sell on ETSY?

I decorate shoes with tattoo-style images, and I make Amigurumi, and can crochet knit, and I’m looking for a new source of income. I have a lot of vintage lace and ribbon as well as cute fabric. I do a lot of different things, but what are some handmade things that you think you might buy? Also, could you list some prices for the item you suggest?

Etsy is gaining a lot of popularity as time goes on, and recognition. Yeah sometimes people will copy your stuff, but when you find a unique item you can make, people won’t be able to reproduce it, especially if you have one-of-a-kind fabrics or other materials. There are hundreds of stitch markers available, for example, but one kind will stand out to a certain person.
As the ofirst answerer said, patterns can be a good way to make money as long as you are able to write instructions well.
Etsy is probably not the place to sell a ton of items and make millions but if you have a blog or other places you can put your name out there, you could draw in some supplemental income.
Don’t be afraid to try it!
