Alissa Harvey quit her boring job and decided to start her own business, 'Mew Paper Arts', where she makes and sells stationary.
Turn your craft into cash by creating it, then selling it online. Places for you to sell your products are Craigslist, eBay, Amazon, and Etsy. You can even build yourself an easy WordPress site and put your products up for sale on it. Although being online can be a very lucrative for your business, don't forget about all the shops around your town that would like to carry your products in their stores. I would suggest making a list of stores that your crafts would fit well in (product wise), and then approaching the store owners to carry your hand-made items.
If your having a hard time coming up with craft ideas, I would suggest perusing Etsy.com. It is a popular site for the creative community, and you will definitely see some cool things that you could make yourself.
Once you have the product ready to sell, you should create a Facebook Fan Page for your product and market it to all your Facebook and Twitter friends. If you don't know how to do that, then head over to Fiverr.com and find someone to do the work for you. Best of luck!
