Creative Beading

I am trying to make some money on ebay for University funds but am running out of ideas.?

I used to design jewellery and have put together some jewellery design packs on ebay from my left over beads, tigerwire, headpins, semi precious beads etc in an organza bag, so you have everything to start designing and making your own jewellery. I have sold 4 (£2.50 each) so far but would like some inspiration, any ideas? I also have 85 Ty Beanie Baby Bears but they don’t seem to be very popular anymore so have listed 2 to see if anyone buys them before I list all of them. I am also quite good at drawing life like figures (females particularly) what style do people enjoy most? e.g. expressionism, pop art, still life, abstract etc…? Maybe I could sell some drawings. If anyone has any ideas let me know. Thanks Oh and the link for my ebay listing for the jewellery is http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=002&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&viewitem=&item=120125172996&rd=1&rd=1 so you can have a look at let me know what you think as this is the kind of thing I had in mind.
