I have been trying to think of a way to make extra money around the house and i was thinking about trying to do bubble letters and sell them on ebay in the scrapbooking section. would this be hard to do and would it even work. Thanx
What I would do is to look on ebay and see if others are selling handwritten bubble letters. You do a search then on the left, there is a toggle box about halfway down the page for completed items. Check that and hit the search again at the bottom of the yellow bar.
You will see the last 90 or so days of auctions and if any were successful.
If not, try searching different terms as well. You might try craigslist in your area too.
Make sure if you do go with ebay to list with a template. Auctiva.com has them for free. Listings with fancy tempates sell much better than those without. You also have unlimited photos with them with no extra charge. (Use personalized in your auction title, people love personalized stuff!)
There is also a new ebay add on called auctionmercial.com it does an infomercial with music and pix, and a voice over right into your auction. Again, free!
Here is a link of one of my auctions with both an auctiva template and auctionmerical for you to get an idea.
