Make Money with Candle Making Crafts
Have you ever wondered if you could find a way to make some extra cash from home—and better yet something that was a little more fun than data entry? Well you’re in luck! Candle making has recently turned into a decent hobby/small business option.
Yes you heard me right you can actually make some money from those candles your making for fun! The secret is to make sure you keep you costs low and only sell what you have on hand—don’t want this to become a stressful chore, but instead a fun way to make money at home, that even you teenage children can do and have a good time.
What you will need to pull this off is a few design ideas. Some people like to make candles in old jars—like from the pasta sauce you got at the store. Of course others take it much further and make molds for their unique candle designs which could be a lot of fun if you are artistic—which since you enjoy this type craft you probably are in one way or another.
So let’s get started, first off you are going to need a marketplace. I suggest eBay as the solution for this, and one search on their site will reveal I’m not the only one with that idea. Candles range in price based on the design or the size—and thus the wax needed to make them—from anywhere to $0.50 to almost $40.00—large and unique candles mostly though.
You need to find candle making supplies that can be bought in bulk such as the ones listed below from Amazon.com:
Once you have the supplies, choose one or two designs and make around 5 candles for it to test the waters so to speak. You will then take some pictures—try and lay them out on a beautiful cloth or table set, make the scene magical for the buyer of your wonderful art work.
Take the photos and a quick description of your candles and make an auction on ebay, try selling the candles one at a time, or in batches of 3 and see what works best for you. Since eBay doesn’t cost much to list you candles if won’t matter if you play around a bit to get a feel for the market.
That’s it, the basis for your own online business from home. If you are truly interested if making a full-blown business out of your candle making art, then please by all means try our mini-course, and grab a copy of our great book for all you could ever want to know about candle making.
