Party Bags/Crafty Kits

[shellie]

Not really sure if I can post this, or if at all anyone has any experience of this but.....

I run a childrens party business and am expanding or rather wanting to expand into party bags. There will be different party bags etc, some will be making things, others will be themed bags.

Just wondered what the general feeling was on this business.
Is it worth it?
Does anyone else do anything similar?
Is there a market for it?

Really dont want to spend loads and then find its a no go area?

There was a thread on children's parties a few months ago, I will have a look for it for you. It was related to making jewellery at children's parties, and from what I remember this went down really well, so bags made up that involved this sort of thing seems like a good idea to me! My friend sells jewellery making kits for kids, so you could considering including something like this, as well as other crafts? Her ebay shop is:

...in case you want to see the type of thing she does / are interested in using her kits. They are £2.99 in the auction or £4.99 Buy It Now.

Hope this helps (and that I am on the right lines!)
