Idea x2: Photo Bookmarks and Photo Centerpieces
We have two photo money-making ideas for you today. They both involve using your photographs in innovative products.
Tip: it is useful to think of particular markets for such products and focus on targeted advertising. For example, with the photo centerpieces you could focus on the weddings market and advertise in bridal dress stores or in any of the widely circulated bridal magazines or on online wedding/bridal sites. Mock up an example using your own or a friend's wedding so you have something to show potential clients.

Photo Bookmarks
Cut a piece of 2-inch-wide grosgrain ribbon 3 inches longer than twice the height of the book; snip a point at each end to prevent fraying. Sew a 1 1/2-inch-by-2-inch photograph to the ribbon by hand-stitching each corner.Read the tutorial and view an example on marthastewart.com
Photo Centerpieces
Create a set of photo frame lanterns -
They consist of three hinged photo frames set around votive candles. The black-and-white photos are printed onto ecru-colored vellum paper, which is translucent enough for the images to be visible by candlelight.Read the tutorial and view an example on marthastewart.com
