Sell whatever crafts you can make silly!
Purses, Birdhouses, Ceramics, Potpourri, any of the things you mentioned above....
Ornaments, Garden Signs, Stationery, Gift Bags, ...
Sell according to the season, or upcoming holidays, and advertise by fliers. I used to live in the country, and I knew people who did this for a living.

I would make affiliate marketing part of my plan. Type in the name of your product followed by affiliate marketing to get some good websites. One to use might be Clickbank or Linkshare. You would list your product. People on the internet give a link to buy your product. They get a small amount and the afiliate marketer gets a small amount -you get the rest. You can set your price and how much you want to give them to sell it -that gives you potentially hundreds or people out there selling your produict for you and you do not have to actually employ any of them.
