If you were to buy a handmade craft item online what would it be?
I want to sell my own crafts online, but I don’t want to make just anything. I am a very crafty and artsy person and I am capable of making many things. I don’t want to make a bunch of something that no one is interested in buying just because I can. So, if you were to buy a craft item online or a homemade item online what would it be? What kind of crafts and homemade items do you think sell best online?

i love bead work-i would buy a beaded ciggy lighter cover
I am also a very crafty person and can do a lot of different things.
I would do a little research first. Check out e-bay and local craft fairs and such for what people are buying. One item I always buy at craft fairs are Christmas ornaments. I have a special love of ornaments.
Also, there was a place I stopped in Binghamton, NY where a woman painted on rocks and bottles! These were fabulous. I ended up buying a “welcome rock” for my yard and 2 wine bottles painted with Christmas decorations. One was a snowman and one was a penguin. I thought these were very unique.
Good luck and Happy Crafting!
unique jewelry, quilts. today i was at michael’s crafts and came across a whole bunch of really cute buttons. they would be adorable as children’s bracelets or rings. i also picked up a decorate-it-yourself jewelry box. i would buy something like that if it were unique. don’t do something like scarves or something that pretty much anyone who can knit can do.
You can go on Etsy.com get a shop then do “alchemy” requests. People put requests on there of what they are looking for.
I don’t buy crafts online. I would rather buy from someone I know. Also, it would have to be something I can’t or won’t do (which is a pretty small list). Finally, I would prefer to buy something from someone who genuinely enjoys what they’re making, and aren’t just making it to sell.
