working from home

HI i wondered if anyone could help here....

About 10 years ago I used to do this work from home we used to refer to as 'contract work' to make a few extra £'s it wasn't much but it was a bit of spare change really.

The work used to get delivered and collected on designated days and was generally these cardboard 'ducks' or other such pictures and we had to stick heat sensitive 'stickers' in them in the right place and we got paid by the hundred, another more complicated job was making up bags for boutique type shops.

2 of my children are teens and want to make some money and I thought something like this would be ideal for them to do from home however I have no idea what it actually was or how to go about getting in touch with the people who provide this work.

Does anyone have any idea what this is or how to get back into it?

Thank you

    This is exactly what I'm looking for. I know some people have been telling me that it doesn't pay much but i'm not looking to make thousands just a bit extra money so that my 2 boys can continue going to their street dance troupe that they are part of as they are starting to get quite well known and so it means a lot more travelling for shows and auditions.
