i feel like this would be a good thing to pick up also if i make something i could possubly sell it locally, maybe and i could use the money to but more craft supplys or things that are needed. ive also been wanting to be more creative lately but im not sure how or what to make, got any ideas by chance i tried selling posters but that dident really work out. maybe i should do commsions but i feel like im bad at most things but ill still try to succeed.

Not sure if that's the type of creativity you're looking for, but it's quite common to sell stickers on Etsy, Redbubble and similar sites. Some stores are quite successful on it.

Or badges, t-shirts anything that you can design and then sell multiple copies of.

You can use online suppliers to print high quality stuff or buy a simple screen print kit and badge maker to make more individual items.
