I have been voluntarily unemployed since March, and am a homemaker. I am looking for ideas of jobs I could do at home and make money. I am trying to get back into sewing, but I have to fight my machine like it's Pantifa sometimes as it must not like the patriotic fabric I'm using. I would LOVE to be able to make a little money from sewing, but I wonder if there's a market in it. Everything is made in Chyna nowadays. I'm rambling and this is a brainstorming post.
After all that, does anyone have any work from home ideas, but not necessarily with a company or anything? I always doom myself before even starting something because I don't like failure, but I do have enough confidence in myself to try, but that machine doesn't cooperate and it takes the wind out of my sails. Then again, I know it takes perserverence to get through anything.
Again. Total brainstorming.
God bless you all. :)
I'm keeping an eye out for ideas too! I'm really starting to think and research seriously about next year's garden; I'm thinking cut flowers and farmer's markets. I'm also bulking up my chicken flock to hopefully be able to sell free range eggs at a farmer's market. I would love to do something like soap making too, but with a one and three year old, I'm terrified of having lye in the house. Also, I'm praying I can get my bees through the winter, because next year, I think they'll actually make enough honey to share with me.
Another idea I have had recently is t-shirts. There are many print on demand places out there, so I'm currently working on figuring out how to get an estore set up. I may start with etsy, but I strongly suspect that they will ban me immediately because of my t-shirt designs (anti mask, anti lockdown, freedom shirts).
One thing I am concerned about is taxes. I don't know how much pedo joe is going to penalize people who want to start their own businesses. I know that a big chunk od anything I make will be put aside until tax time, but I also don't want to force us into the next bracket and screw us over.
Anywho, sorry for the word vomit! TLDR is "go for it!"
Thank you!! My husband makes our soap. It takes while to cure/dry out, but it's worth not having all the chemicals in there.
