Entrepreneurship...

Okay, so I have been getting EXTREMELY crafty lately and want to sell some awesomely customized, handmade accessories. Obviously, the point of this is to make some extra money without having to spend too much on materials and supplies. So, I have about 10 ideas in my head, but until things get going, I want to stick with a limited number of styles so I don't have to come out of pocket too much to make them all happen at once. Make sense?

So, to give you an idea of what exactly I'm talking about, I searched for some images that depict my ideas to some extent. They're not exact, and obviously they would be 100% customizable and handmade which is awesome, but if you could PLEASE let me know which ones you think I should make first, I would totally appreciate your input!!!

So here they are:


#1.
STUFFED BOW NECKLACE

my version: iridescent sheer material over a solid fabric, soft but more structured-looking

#2.
FEMININE HEADBANDS

photo: girly but simple
my version: adorned with random cute, kitsch, girly, sparkly embellishments and made on smaller size headbands so it doesn't make the space behind your ears sore

#3.
SATIN BOW NECKLACE


photo: black
my version: array of colors and chain would come from either side of the bow so that it would stay put

#4.
BLING KEYS

#5.
COLORED HAIR EXTENSIONS
