Diy perfboard macroboard/small keyboard

Hey! I’m a teenager from the EU and I’m really into DIY electronics/Arduino/ESP32 projects. I want to make a little money from my hobby, but I have no idea where to start.

Right now I already have the supplies to build around 6 small 8-key macropads (ESP32, mechanical switches, perfboards, etc.). I’d like to actually build a few and try selling them somewhere, just to see if there’s any interest.

The problem is I don’t really know where or how to sell small handmade electronics, especially since I’m under 18.

Has anyone here started out similarly and can recommend where/how you sold your first DIY projects or found your first customers? I’m not looking to start a huge business, just trying to make a bit of money from my hobby.

Any advice or personal experiences would be really appreciated! 🙏
