  • Answer:

    Best Answer - Chosen by Asker Make jumbo chocolate covered strawberries with nuts on a Popsicle stick. At the mall they are 5$ a chocolate covered strawberry, sell 30 a day each one is 2$ and you will make 60$ a day if you sell all of them. And in a week you will make 420$. and a month 2,520$ a year 30,240$ damn you could by a house. Sell like 60 a day and in a year 60,480$.

I saw this on a TV craft show: A lady takes beautiful, stiff paper and uses Origami type folding to turn them into gift boxes of all shapes and sizes! One thing I remember is that she made a thin paste of glue and water and dipped the papers in and hung them up to dry. This make the paper stiffer and waterproof. Then, she uses a ruler to help her fold and crease precisely. You could certainly get an Origami book and learn all about this. Or try Googling "Origami Boxes Crafts" or something like that. Good luck!

I have no experience in selling at craft fairs, although you might want to check out forums at craftster.org. They have a forum all about selling crafts at craft fairs as well as online. :) I'd suggest you post a question there, they're all very helpful! Good luck! :)

I have attend many fairs in my life both selling and buying. I've found that nice dolls are easy to make and sell quickly either buy creramic and make dresses or patchwork dolls. handmade quilts are always nice well made quilts can go for over $100 even in small towns. you should make a list of ideas then go to fairs that you may want to sell in and compare what is selling to where threre's a gap in the market. ask friends what they would like to find and buy at the fairs.
