Okay so obviously in tx yu have to be 16 and up to work anywhere and im not quite there yet.so i cant walkdogs cause i hate the sun,i cant do anything involving animals at my house cause i have way to many.i cant babysit,,i have no idea why.i already cut grass but its been raining for quite a while.and so ive been selling my old stuff over the internet.but i kno that sooner or later i will run out of things to sell cause id probably get rid of all my junk and i want to make things myself.but i dont kno wat to make.all i can do is write poetry and draw but im sure no other teengers want to buy my poems and drawings.and besides i want my poetry to be known that i wrote it and the person who buys it might say they wrote it.so its a no go.same go for my drawings.and i dont really kno wat to make.wat appropriate stuff would yu recommend me to make.other than totebags,bows,plastic jewelry.

Answer 1

You could knit or crochet those bracelets or even larger things, and with you artistic talent and sense of color placement, they would be quite popular. You can sell them on the Internet too.

Also, in most states you can get a work permit starting at age 14. Call the state employment commission to find out how.

Answer 2

It depends. Fine art or craft art? I find crafts much easier to sell than fine art. That's most likely because of the functionality. Generally selling professionally doesn't come at 14 years old.. It usually takes some time at any age, in fact. If you are as talented as you seem to display in those few sentences, you have a shot at being a professional artist. You may be able to sell some now... here and there... little things. If you want to start trying it out, might I suggest yard sales, flea markets, and fundraisers. Of course the fundraiser money wouldn't go to you.. But it would be something to see how well something sells. Other than that, feel free to give it to people you like. Walking advertisements are great. Good luck! Edit.-- you might want to scratch the first question about fine art vs craft... >.>; I'm tired and didn't notice the "Drawing/Illustration" label... The rest after that works the same though :D Best of luck.

Answer 3

Since you've already mentioned jewelry,hopefully that includes earrings, necklaces, bracelets, ankle bracelets, rings, and toe rings. For earrings, I would suggest both clips and pierced. Also, don't limit yourself to plastic. Grab a "how to" book or check to see if there are any free or low cost jewelry making classes in your area. I would also suggest decorating jeans and shirts too.


If you're good at photography, perhaps you could also take pictures, put them in a book, and have the book published. Same thing with your drawings put them in book form and have them published. Don't forget to copy write them if you can.


Best of luck to you. Don't forget to come back and let us know what worked and what didn't work.
