I can't take credit for them, Dotcom is the one that showed how to make them. I just copied her idea and made some for to hand out at a quilting retreat that I was attending. I loved her idea and they were so much fun to make. |

I had luck the last craft fair with keychains like this. I sold them for $4 each. I used to have a website before I got married and moved, and I sold them for $4 plus $1 shipping.
Excuse the picture, was taken with my cell phone. [ATTACH=CONFIG]159588[/ATTACH] |

I do a couple craft fairs like that. It seems that small change purses or handbags sell. How about "Baked potato bags" ot pot holders
|
How about mug rugs, they seem to be all the rage on all the sewing sites.

try the chickens that the lady posted the site just this week. It is supposed to hold a page on a cook book while you're trying to read it, but last night I made two, one that didn't stand up, so I did the next one like I was making a purse and cut a tine square off the bottom corners and it sits up nicely and I'm going to use them as pincushions.....really cute. I have ten more I'm going to make and use as happies for the secret pal swap

Cute little book markers- Would be ideal for ladies to get for their secret sisters to put in their Bibles. :)
Hair accessories, Bible covers, Hot pads for placing hot dishes onto your counters/table, casserole dish carriers, doll quilts for little girls. Good luck!! :thumbup: |
tipnut.com is a great site !!!

I didn't read all of these but Kindle bags and covers are big right now. There's also bookmarks, monkeys and animals seem to be big right now---either made from socks or just looking like sock monkeys and appliqued on other things like book covers, purses, tote bags, etc. Run a search on here for Crock Pot Cosy---it's a potholder design specifically for lids.
