  1. Garden signs. Super easy, a stake and a piece of wood that can be just about any shape you want. Rectangle, arrow shaped, birdhouse shaped, lolly pop shape, whatever comes to mind. But you'll have to get creative with painting them and clever sayings. There are books you can buy with ideas though. You can also do bird houses or take the garden sign into the house with various plaques in various shapes, critters, etc. There are books on those and I'm sure other ideas. Here is a site to get you started with ideas! Free wood work patterns!
  2. Custom make jewelry boxes. You can get flooring scraps for free. I've used about any type of wood for my projects. Since they are one of a kind you can sign the bottoms and have an heirloom!
  3. I would say birdhouses. They are not hard to make and would be pretty cheap. Decorating them would not have to be a hard job either. And you can sell them for a pretty good price.
