Any things and products that were created by human hands have a unique energy. Today, the popularity of hand-made goods is gaining momentum.

To create a worthy source of income from an ordinary hobby, you need to truly love your job and have a competent business plan.

There are many handicraft opportunities that can generate a steady income.

Decoupage technique

Decoupage is a technique of pasting various surfaces with pieces of paper or fabric, which are then varnished. For this case, very few materials and devices are required: paper and fabric canvases, adhesive composition, scissors, various brushes.

To purchase a starter decoupage kit, you will need to pay about 10 thousand rubles. The necessary fabric and paper shreds can be found among friends and relatives.

Precisely because old things are often needed for hand-made creativity, this type of income becomes profitable, as it does not require the purchase of expensive materials.

Decor candles

The competition in the decorative candle market is quite strong, since this type of activity is not at all new. However, by developing your own technology and design, you can create beautiful souvenirs with their own hands in the form of unique candles.

For the manufacture of the first batch of candles, you will need to spend about a thousand rubles, which will go to:

  • purchase of raw materials - as a rule, ordinary candles are melted down by the steam method;
  • purchase of paint - you can use ordinary children's colored crayons;
  • making molds from tetra-pack bags. Otherwise, the necessary forms are bought in stores.

In the production of candles, the rules of safe work should be observed, since the wax and paraffin vapors released during melting become fire hazardous.

Floral compositions

Unique individual flower arrangements today cost about five thousand rubles. At the same time, the cost of such a bouquet will be about 2 thousand.

Custom floral arrangements are used for weddings, anniversaries and other celebrations. The only disadvantage of such a case is the search for a clientele, since the flowers are a perishable product, then the bouquets are made before the direct issuance of the order to the client.

Stitched dolls

The female gender at any age loves to teach dolls as a gift. For babies, this is a great toy, for adult ladies, these can be exclusive models in the collection of dolls.

High-quality and unique work among embroidered dolls is in great demand.

In order to start the production of dolls from scratch and make a really high-quality good souvenir doll, you need to organize a small sewing workshop, which will be equipped with:

  • simple sewing machine,
  • scissors, a colored palette of threads, needles,
  • various fabrics and fillers.

Average cost finished chrysalis- 500 rubles, while the retail price is 2 thousand rubles.

Note!

Wooden souvenirs

Souvenirs made of wood can be presented as very miniature decorations, as well as large ones. carved panels and furniture arrangements. The material for production is wood, and it is not difficult to find it at any building base. Valuable specimens of the tree are harder to find.

To start your business of producing wooden souvenirs, you need to develop and create the first collection. The intensity of its sale determines the demand for specific items. After that, you can start the mass production process.

Badges and key rings

The manufacture of exclusive key rings can be done by a person who owns locksmith skills.

For this case, it is necessary to have specialized equipment in the form of a vice, a machine tool, blanks and materials. The amount of initial investments will be from 30 to 40 thousand rubles.

beading

Very beautiful crafts and do-it-yourself souvenirs are made from beads and beads. For such a business, a minimum amount of equipment and materials is required: a loom, bead sets, fishing line, beads.

Note!

The total amount of funds will be approximately one thousand rubles. You can create various kinds of jewelry from beads, embroider fabrics with them, create flower arrangements.

Ceramic products

The shops are full of pottery, but they don't have the warmth that handmade ones have. The main thing in this business is the presence of a clay deposit near the direct production.

Even the presence of a special kiln is not necessary, since it is possible to dry a small product in a conventional oven.

Knitted accessories

Any hand-knitted items, whether clothes or accessories, have a unique personality. Therefore, such gizmos are appreciated by the consumer, thanks to which this business is quite profitable.

To create knitted things, you only need to purchase yarn and hooks or knitting needles. But for industrial production you need knitting machine which will cost approximately $1,000.

  • production of chocolate souvenirs.

Sales of handmade souvenirs

The first one is shop trading. Hand-made craftsmen sell their crafts in souvenir shops and departments. At the same time, registration of an individual entrepreneur, LLC or certificates for products is not needed here.

However, there is a minus here - a lot of competition and sharing of income with the owner of the store.

The second option is online sales. To do this, you will also have to spend a lot of money on creating your own website (about 10 thousand rubles). Promotion and organization of the group in in social networks will also cost money.
