Hello everyone...I am new to the group and still pretty much trying to learn my way around on here. I am a stay at home mother, looking to make some crafts things to sell at local flea markets and such. One thing that I do is make Texas Longhorn stepping/garden stones. Does anyone know what kind of crafty things are selling pretty easily now? I have been to trade days in the area but everyone acts like they are scared to talk to me about it, lol....I am not looking to invest alot of money to get started with anything, and one thing I absolutely will NOT do is...crochet   :) Anyone have any ideas? I would SO appreciate it, thanks!    =)

Hi,I would suggest perfumed body oils or incense.You can buy bottles of fragrance oils including designer types in large bottles,which will save you on the long run.I am in the fragrance and candle business.I sell perfumed body oils and incense every weekend at the craft show/flea market.I am currently working on my own website,it will be up and running soon,and I am a power seller on ebay.Think about it.Everyone loves to smell good and cannot afford to buy $60-$70 bottles of perfumes.Some of my best sellers are Cotton Candy--Lovespell--Dreamcicle--Gee,your hair smells terrific and herbal essence,and of course PHilosphy types.I have displays and bulk bottles that come with the roll-ons and the carrier oil that makes them skin safe and the premium fragrance oils.It is worth a try.I sell here in WV,hope to talk soon.Good Luck,Mary@MaryScents
