Cute Fimo
Things i can make and sell?

so far i make key chains (fimo and felt) badges (also fimo and felt), button badges, fortune cookies, hair clips.

but im looking for more things that are quite easy and cheap to make, but look totally cute.

Depending on where you are as to what is HOT right now. I do the whole craft/art show market in the NY, NJ, PA area. I do jewelry and would NOT recommend getting into it. The market for jewelry right now is completely saturated. Most craft shows will no longer accept jewelers as they already have too many that are returning. I also would not recommend sewing purses for the same reason.
I would recommend expanding on what you already do: fimo and felt. What else can you do with them. How about sets of stich markers for knitters? Use fimo to make small animals and insert a spiral on metal wire sticking up into it to make little photo holders. Use fimo to embellish picture frames or small clay pots. Also anything that screams "heirloom" will sell good. How about small fimo boxes for baby's first tooth etc.

Things at craft shows sell better if they seem to go together. If you have a table with a little of this and a little of that that has no connecting thread you will have a harder time with sales. If you make your theme FIMO and FELT and have all of your projects center around that you will do much better.

Good Luck!
