The best option is handicrafts. As practice shows, many women who emigrated abroad turn their hobby into a home-based business that brings a decent income. It only remains to decide on the type of handicraft.
Knitting
Hand labor is highly valued abroad, but it does not always bring sufficient profit. This applies to crocheting or knitting, which is considered a low-potential business. Competing with technology is becoming more difficult every day. A modern knitting machine of the 3rd class will produce a quality item several times faster than manual labor. However, in Scandinavia, hand knitting is in high demand, and this type of business is encouraged at the government level.
Teaching knitting
In Israel, the services of handicraft schools are in steady demand. For a nominal fee, teachers teach students the basics of knitting, embroidery, and other popular types of handicrafts. These establishments derive their main income from selling yarn and other consumables to their students.
Original ideas
The success of any business largely depends on the novelty and originality of the idea. Handicrafts are no exception. Many designers successfully sell ideas and technologies of 'hand made' to specialized publications. If a design truly deserves attention, its author can count on a substantial fee. Publications and enterprises interested in proprietary 'know-how' can easily be found via the Internet.
Russian embroidery and lace
Ryazan lace patterns and national embroidered ornaments arouse genuine interest among foreigners. Unique collars, belts, wallets, and other accessories can provide an additional source of income. For their production, you can use embroidery machines and other equipment, since in this case the complex pattern or ornament is valued. Attracting new customers and advertising your products will again be helped by the virtual space.
Jewelry and souvenirs
Original jewelry and souvenirs made of beads, leather, wicker, and other materials are in demand all over Europe. The main thing is to know the traditions of the country well so that handmade goods do not contradict its culture and values. In Europe, craft fairs are constantly organized, which can be a good platform for starting out, presenting your products, and making contacts.
