You can create and sell something that you are already inherently interested in, and you will also have the opportunity to earn an income from something that you can make from your home. There are many handicrafts examples that are easy to create and easy to begin as a commercial enterprise. Wooden products, glass products, toys, candle making are some examples of popular handicraft products.
You can start make the products in your spare time, or hire a few helpers to get things done faster. Moreover, there are many ways to sell them-whether through direct selling, consignment, or per order basis. If you have a particular handicrafts enterprise on your mind, you can research on how to jumpstart your business, like materials, costing, packaging, and distribution. You have to target your market as well, and depending on your product you will be able to pinpoint your specific market. In this manner, you will be able to look for ways to satisfy their needs even more, by providing a unique product

• Business Cards to hand out at shows, fairs and retail stores
• Detailed picture catalog of your works (a portfolio).
• A web site
• Look into local rags (papers), chamber of commerce newsletters, regional magazines and other publications
You can choose which one that on your cost. Good luck!
