Hi All,

 Im pregnant with my first child - [27+6] and wanted to make some money on the side, and to keep myself occupied. Im 18 and i have very strong creative skills, i like to make something of nothing and am always coming up with business ideas ... too many that i change my mind too often and end up doing something else ..

I decided im going to try a new one, but wanted to know what you all thought of the idea and how well you think it would work? so if your interested please read on ....

I would like to make myself and distribute novelty confectionary (i know its not original) .. I can make confectionary for almost every calendar occasion and near enough any topic you think of i can produce a product to reflect/represent that topic ...

I would obviously go about this 100% professionally and get all the help i need to make it a success .. use proper cellophane wrap & ribbon or favour boxes etc ... i have found a supplier for everything i need and now just wanted to know what you all thought?

Let me know, & All advice is appreciated.

Gemma.

Hiya Gemma,

 If you think its something you would enjoy doing and really want to make a go of it then why not!? Im the same with the ideas. Im setting up my own Photography/graphic design business. I sell Usborne books and im now looking in to teaching babies sign language.

Hi Gemma,

 I have created a business from paintings I did for my baby before he was born.  I sell prints of them on www.caterpillarart.com.  It means I can work from home and look after baby. 

 If your confectionary is for children or babies, personalise them.  Baby's name, birth etc.

Wish you loads pf success.
