I need your creativity!  |

| As many of you know, I have been making incense bottles for extra income. Things have been going pretty well....great actually. The problem I am having now is that I've reached a block. I have done fairies, dragons,disney characters, etc. I have done so many jimi hendrix, bob marley & grateful dead...aerosmith, led zep. I need new ideas. Done the sports thing too. I'm starting to feel bored and need fresh ideas. What is popular besides the above? Oh...I've also done several "joker" ones. maybe some younger people here could give me some good ideas. Please stimulate me! | | | | | |

| | I never knew there was such a thing as incense bottles. Good for you for thinking of something creative to make and earn money! Have you done anything to fit with people's home decor? Like how about something that would go with a beach house? You could do sand, shells, seahorses. For mountain homes you could do deer, bears, waterfalls, etc. | | | | | | |

| | Thanks for the ideas. I have a friend that works with me and she has done some lighthouses and i have done dolphins. I have also done a few moose and deer ones. Those are generally orders that we get. seahorses is a great idea and also got me thinking on seals...polar bears...whales. I think I'm just in a mental slump. Thank you so much for your help. | | | |

| | Incense, wow you sure know how to earn some income. I wish I knew how to start a business like that. Now for the ideas- are you referring to the shapes/ or figures that you make to create the incense? Christmas is coming, how about christmas themes? or something the students or parents can purchase for their teacher. Something the teacher can appreciate and the parent and child can also show their appreciation to their teacher too. This can be a year round item too. many parents buy things for teacher towards end of school year because they want to thank teachers for their hard work and patience in helping their child. | | | | | | |

| | Thank you for some good ideas. I am talking about images to put on the bottles. Holiday theme sounds like a great idea! Thank you for the thoughts. | | | |

| | Great business you have there. I was sitting here thinking of ideas for you, then I saw on my desk a high heel shoe ring holder. Maybe you could do some incence holders in the shape of high heels, boots, thongs. Hope you haven't already done this idea. Good luck, hope you find some great ideas here. | | | | | | |

| | Actually I put images on the bottles. Possibly a high heel would work but I don't know about the thongs really. If you look into my profile you will see a web page that we are working on (slowly) and it will give you an idea of what I do. Thank you for your thoughts! | | | |

| | I have done a few pink floyd ones and a couple of irish ones. You are right, I am not into rap music but that is a very popular genre. I'll have to ask my daughter which ones are popular. All I can come up with is m&m and snoopdog and I'm not sure they are even popular anymore. Great idea ocean! Thank you! | | | |

| | your son is a sweetheart! Ludicrous...how could I not think of that...I actually do know that band as well as Dr.Dre. Ya, know...music and fantasy art is what really really sells and I guess I just reached a standstill here. I've done so, so many fairies and dragons etc. As for music...I love it but I get stuck on bands like pink floyd, aerosmith, bob marley, grateful dead, led zep....all those sell so fast but I need something fresh as I find myself getting bored with those. Your sons thoughts have been a great inspiration. My daughter listens to Dr. dre as well as ludicris and I do like some of their music.She keeps promising me a "list" but she is 14 and well...you know how that goes. | | | |

| | you can use saw dust as your primary coating instead of paint. i'm into making of holster like radio guns and cellphone. | | | | | | |

| | Sawdust? That actually sounds as if it would look really cool. I know some guys that are into woodworking so maybe I can get them to save me some. I think I'll give it a try. I'll let you know how it comes out. Thank you for a great new idea! | | | |

| | sawdust a fine one.not the rough one. coat it with glue then roll it on a sawdust then see what happen to it, it make a new texture. you can create more like using beads or sequence. anything that can be use to glue in the bottle, a rope can be useful too. | | | |

| | I saw that you mentioned having a website....maybe you could do custom orders through the site....maybe ask people to send in some pictures to you to give you ideas of what they would like.... i personally love tigers & fairies....Happy Bunny is pretty popular.... maybe you could do some inspirational or cute sayings with colorful or landscaped backrounds. maybe even have people send in photos of family, friends or pets to copy onto them. good luck | | | | | | |

| | hi camomom, Well we already do many custom made ones as well as photos. We put sayings on many of them depending on the image. Now happy bunny is something that I hadn't thought of. I'll give it a try. Thank you for your helpful thoughts! | | | |

| | {{SID}}, What a great idea you have on making money: Brilliant! Wish I had thought of it...LOL! I've been banging my head upside the wall the last three years on what to do to earn money at home: I bet they smell wonderful! I read all the great responses here, you've got quite a few good ideas going already, I checked out your website too, the bottles are really unique, I like them, in fact if I had any extra $$$ I'd buy some from you;, if you have time click on my photo and check out my own website I too am building one of my own for my home business; such as it is...pffttt!!! if I was to place an order I'd probably want one done with one or more of my pets, not sure and can't remember but what about new mom's?? they would probably like one of their newborns?? You've got a great idea going here and with the holidays fast approaching, I am sure you will do well..good luck to you, and send some customers my way will ya?? LOL! take care now | | | | | | |

| | hi dreamweaver, Thank you so much for your kind words. I do photos and that is a great idea about new mom's (or any mom) maybe wanting a pic of their child. I will definitely check out your website. My website is still being worked on. As it is, it doesn't attract much attention. Most of my sales are local. Don't give up on your own home business. I'm sure you'll hit it right. Again thank you for stopping by with your kind thoughts. | | | |

| | Hi Sid, What a creative home business you have going. Congratulations! I'm sure you'll do really well, with all of the holidays approaching. Somebody already mentioned Christmas themes, but there is also Halloween and Thanksgiving. What about doing some retro t.v. show ones, for us 'oldsters?' Perhaps shows like I Love Lucy, Leave It To Beaver, Mash, Cheers, and the list goes on. Another idea is famous movies such as Wizard of Oz, Sound of Music, Gone With The Wind, etc. Do you have to worry about copyright infringements, when using these images? I wish you all of the best with this. I've been trying for several years now, to come up with something legitimate to do from home, and so far nothing. Most of what I've looked into, turn out to be scams, or things that 'just aren't me.' I'll keep trying. Of course we have myLot here, but it won't bring in what I need it to, to make things better. Take care. | | | | | | |

| | You have given me some good ideas here. I think your idea of oldies is great...mash...Lucy, cheers...ooh and what about David Cassidy? See..you got my thinking stimulated. That is what I was looking for as I was at a standstill. As far as copyrights...not worried. I actually don't do enough of or earn enough off from any one artist to worry. I am not copying their lyrics nor am I downloading and selling their music. I get my images off the net but also in mags etc. As for you getting a 2nd income, you just have to tap into what you are good at. I have never found trouble bringing in extra money. I have done everything from typing,daycare, carpentry, cleaning out apts so others can get their deposits,sewing, cooking...etc etc. I dated a man that made a living off from e-bay. surely there is something you can do...don't sell yourself short! | | | |

| | I'm glad I could help, regarding the suggestions. I too love David Cassidy, and used to be an avid Partridge Family viewer. Thanks too, for the encouragement about finding work from home. I've done the daycare thing for years, and still have a little girl (seven) coming here after school each day. I've looked after her since she was eight months old, and used to go to her home. The thing is, I'm burning out from this, and don't earn enough at it. I am still hoping to see (this) with her through until she doesn't need anyone to look after her anymore. I do have some limitations, as I have serious feet and leg problems. I really enjoy writing, and am wanting to see if I can earn doing this online. I just have to make sure that I choose (any assignments) wisely. MyLot has been a great starting point for me, as I'm enjoying the friendships, and am able to feel creative as well. I just need to find something more substantial (in addition), and to make sure they're not sites that pay only pennies. I'll keep looking. Thanks, again. | | | |

| | I saw the Christmas response post. How about Halloween ones. Pumpkins, ghosts, or haunted houses. Thanksgiving is near also. Ohhh!! Since Christmas is close, do some research on Jewish holidays. Chinese New Year. Maybe other religious themes. Angels and Virgin Mary really sell. | | | | | | |
