1. Gardening, house painting, home repairs

Are there any handy people among our readers? Because I have some good news for you! If you know that you enjoy gardening, plumbing, or even house painting and are good at it, it might be a great way to turn your hobby into a small business. And the good thing about this particular “job” is that you can also make your schedule, so if you’re not a morning person, for example, you can arrange everything so you can have the morning free. Allow yourself to be flexible but also make some profit.

Moreover, besides gardening and home repairs, you can also enter the world of a small business that allows people to lease plants instead of owning them. Depending on the plants, you can earn up to $225 per month. It’s not a big amount, but it’s still something, and it adds up to the budget! Many offices want to make their setting appear more active, but they don’t want to maintain the plants. And this is your chance to shine if you’ve always had a green thumb!

All you have to do is ensure that the plants are watered and clipped, and in case of emergencies, you will be contacted by your clients.
