If you need to make $1-$2k in a short period the best way to do this is to sell your things. You should have enough things to make that in enough time and you can always buy replacement things when you have the money later.
Once you've sold enough stuff, work out how much you need that's left. Can you get that doing a couple of evenings or weekends of part time work?
