Teenagers always need money.
And they need something to keep them busy.
Sometimes teenagers with no creative outlet get into trouble, so it is best to find something interesting for them to do.
They are lots of ideas for teens, and some of them start at school.
Often different classes will teach them crafts, such as wood crafting, jewelry making, painting, stained glass art or photography.
One crafting job that may interest teenagers is the t-shirt business.
There is a lot that can be done to a t-shirt.
You can silk screen, paint or bedazzle.
Or you can do a combination of the styles.
You will need some money to get started, but after a few are done, they can be listed for sale online.
You can use a personal website or sell the t-shirts through an online auction.
T-shirts are great sellers because everyone loves them.
It does not matter how young or how old or even what size a person is we all love our t-shirts.
On an auction site, you choose a beginning price for the t-shirt and then if more that one person is interested, it will drive the price up.
The two-dollar shirt, embellished with design may be worth five dollars, you put a price of twelve dollars on it and it could actually sell for thirty.
Your teenager could be making good money very quickly.
Especially if they have a good eye for design.
A business that starts out as a top way for a teenager to make money may result in a business your teenager will continue through adulthood.
There are many ways to enlarge or enhance this business for instance you could add belts or jackets.
