Candy Wrapping Business

A Candy Wrapping Business is easy to learn and can be a nice side business to have. The business does require specialized software. Although some artistic ability is recommended, it is not required, the software will handle most design jobs. Your ideal market would be favors for weddings, children's parties, school or church fundraising events, even business announcements for brick and mortar businesses.

Calligraphy

If you have the ability to do beautiful handwritten script, then calligraphy might be an ideal business for you. Even though there are numerous software programs that can generate the look of calligraphy, nothing beats the real thing. Because it is becoming a lost art, most people appreciate the skill required for calligraphy and are willing to pay a premium for ornate handwritten invitations, documents, etc. Advertise your services to local bridal shops, gift shops or florists.

Children's Party Planner

If you enjoy planning parties or events and love being around children, a children's party planning service might the right business for you.

What doting, but very busy parents wouldn't appreciate expert help with planning their precious child's party? You could also market your services to grandparents who would love the opportunity to be involved with making a special grandchild's party a memorable event for everyone.

As a party planner, you would make all the arrangements from advising the parents on party themes to ordering the cake and entertainment, etc. Part of your services could be handling the invitations and RSVP's. If you're creative, you could put together different themes for parties. This has a high potential for a nice income if you create coordinated "packages" that include costumes, party favors, party food, games, etc. You could even tie in a Candy Wrapping business and have an additional income stream.

Being a party planner does require a little bit of creativity, lots of patience and attention to detail and the ability to deal with last minute changes to carefully laid out plans. But the reward is not only in the money you can make, but the smiles and shouts of glee from happy kids!

Costume Maker

Were you ever pressed into service to make costumes for your child's school play? If so, you could be a good candidate for operating your own costume making service. If you have good dressmaking skills, you can expand into making outfits for local dance studios; or how about Olympic figure-skating or gymnastics wannabes?

Personal Chef

Do you love to cook and prepare gourmet meals? If so then, a Personal Chef business might be right for you! A personal chef plans a menu for a family, does the complete grocery shopping, cooks everything in the family's kitchen, then leaves the meals in the freezer ~ with detailed reheating instructions! It is a complete catering business ~ but with variety, by cooking a variety of dishes in quantity, rather than the same dish in quantity.

A personal chef doesn't have to deal with the stress that a regular caterer does, gets to make a wide variety of delicious meals, and can get paid extremely well to do it. You can even combine a personal chef business with a direct sales/party plan company that offers kitchen and home products, such as Pampered Chef, to earn even more income!

Professional Organizer

If you like to help people and are organized and detail-oriented, then a career as a Professional Organizer might be ideal for you. Many people today need help getting their lives in order and they will pay you to organize their clutter. If you are thinking about or planning to start your own business, this new step-by-step Home-based Professional Organizing Business guide will show you the basics of starting and operating your own successful Professional Organizer business.

Recipes Publisher

If you enjoy cooking and trying out different recipes, then you might try publishing your own collection of favorite recipes. Regional or home-style recipes are very popular and can be complied into a spiral-bound book that you could sell through area food markets or places that cater to tourists (maybe your local bed & breakfast).

Special Occasions Decorating

If you have a creative flair and enjoy working with beautiful objects, you can cash in on your talent as a special occasions decorator for events such as anniversaries, birthday parties, first communion parties or housewarming parties, etc.

People who don't want to spend large amounts of money for these types of events, but still want the ambiance at home or who sometimes have difficulty finding retail establishments that will accommodate small events, will appreciate your creative expertise. By offering reasonable rates and beautifully crafted floral displays, decorative arrangements or elegant table settings, etc., you can set the stage for a sizeable income when the word gets around!

Pet Day Care

If you love pets, you could offer day care services for pet owners who work long hours away from home. You could arrange to visit each pet at the owner's home during the course of the day. By grouping your clients geographically, you can rotate your pet care throughout the day to ensure that each pet is fed, walked and otherwise checked upon . Alternatively, if you have enough room in your home, owners could drop off their pets in the morning and pick them up in the evening. For an extra fee, you could offer to housebreak puppies, take pets for visits to the vet, pet grooming, etc.

Doggie Togs

Dogs are man's (and woman's) best friend. People love their pooches and will do almost anything to pamper and care for their pets. How about creating one of a kind sweaters or wraps for dogs? Pets can and do get cold in wintertime, so their owners will pay good money to buy custom created sweaters for their pets. Whether you hand knit or sew a wrap, just make sure that it's cozy and warm and the pet will thank you!
