Do you want some easy crafts to make and sell? This blog post is the perfect resource. You’ll find 72 different crafting ideas for all ages.


Perhaps one of the most appealing side hustle ideas for creative people is selling crafts online.  I’ve met many women making hundreds to thousands in extra income per month by selling crafts from home, and I think it’s AMAZING! They are not only making money, but they also love what they do!

I really believe in the saying that if you do what you love, you’ll never work a day in your life. It’s why I write about all sorts of money-making ideas here on this blog to offer you options, and hopefully help you find your passion and make money from it.

But, if you’ve always been creative, artistic and a natural DIYer, you might want to try your hand at making crafts and make money creating things you love doing anyway. 

You’ll never know, you could become the next Sarah Titus making a whopping $3,760,000 in a year!

I know, that may sound like a dream, but I think making $500 in extra income per month selling crafts from home is very realistic for beginners. More so today with the many amazing platforms such as Etsy, Shopify or Facebook Marketplace that allow you to reach more customers even without leaving home.

I want you to note, though, that not all crafts are profitable. So, if you are still brainstorming for things to make and sell from home, don’t worry, I’ve done the research for you to give you more ideas on the most profitable crafts to make and sell for profit!

  • Are you ready to start making crafts for money?
  • Need more money-making ideas?

Before we dive into the best crafts that make money, here are a couple of things that I think is important to consider before you even get started:

Consider the cost

Although I’ve only included in this list of crafts that are not only easy to sell but are also cost-effective, it is still important to do your own research on the actual cost. You’ll give your homemade products your personal touch and that may affect their cost and price. Find out where to get your supplies for cheap, how much similar products sell online, the logistics, and how to set your prices.

How to sell your products

Thankfully, there are so many online platforms that you could use to sell your products. You are no longer only limited to selling your products at trade fairs or bazaars. Check out these websites to sell stuff locally.

Create a blog

Blogging is an awesome way to showcase your crafts and I really recommend creating a blog for your business because it can tremendously help you establish your presence online.

Most people who make and sell crafts for money also run a blog that serves as their online portfolio or catalog for their customers to browse through. Your blog is also a great place for you to tell stories behind your crafts to inspire people.

The good thing is, setting up a blog is super easy and cheap (the best price here!). If you need help, I have an easy-to-follow tutorial to guide you on how to set up a blog with Hostgator.

Hostgator is one of the most popular hosting companies out there and it’s also one of the easiest ways to get your blog up and running today. They offer a FREE domain name for one year ($15 value), 24/7 customer service, 1-click WordPress install, and a 45-day moneyback guarantee.
