3) You can advertise for doing some tailring work, where you can mend people's clothes or alter them for them. You can charge anywhere between GBP7 to GBP20 for altering men's trousers. You can easily earn GBP 15 to GBP50 for altering women's dresses. If it is a wedding dress you can charge as much as GBP70-110 per dress/gown.
4) If you like Henna, there is a dearth of good henna applier, especially during the marriage seasons during July-October. Where you can charge as much as GBP25-GBP70 per hour. This is one such activity which you can do sitting at home or if you are pregnant.
