Profitable Hobbies

There are so many crafty hobbies that you can profit from and have fun with. One of my hobbies is making boat model kits and selling them when I complete them. Also I make contemporary & digital art and sell pieces at times. You can make a craft out of nearly anything and could even consider it a work of art. You can create a web store and sell your crafts/art on Ebay. Below is 3 craft ideas with a low investment and high profit rate. I will be adding more so bookmark my Hub. I cover model kits, craft sticks and pet rock art.

Model Kits can be plastic, wood, and paper versions of cars, boats, houses, airplanes, boats, animals, movie paraphernalia, etc.. The finished product when done right can be profitable as there are collector's always collecting the finished product.

Another could be profitable hobby is making figures or art out of craft sticks. The skill is one to perfect but once you get the hang of it, it'll be fast and easy. With craft sticks you can make unique boxes, photo frames, waste baskets, jewelry boxes, lamps and so much more. Also craft sticks are inexpensive and can make for a great profit margin.
