Feeling Crafty


A few weeks ago I started making Christmas decorations to sell on eBay. They haven't sold as well as I would have liked but I got some real enjoyment from designing and then creating them. I remembered that I'm artistic and that I enjoy crafts. In an ideal world I'd be doing something like this for a living but as it stands, it's not going to happen. At the moment I have a craft box but one day I'd like to have a craft room. Just somewhere to put all of my unfinished products until I decide to finish them.

I'd like to carve and sell pumpkins at Halloween. Ok, the work is seasonal but surely there is a market out there for it? Maybe I could decorate cakes. I make some excellent figures out of clay so why not out of icing? My problem is that in order to do a good and professional job you'd need to spend money on tools and supplies. That's not something that I can do for what would be a part-time hobby. I have many years of work left yet so I guess I've got time to look for something that I could making a living from. Any ideas would be appreciated here.
