Business expenses & standard deduction

I am reviewing my 2009 tax year, and i have a substantial increase in income which made my tax liability increase. i was considering starting a small home based business to utilize the deductions, but i was wondering if i would have to surpass the standard deduction rate to make the business deductions worth it? By the way, single, no children, no home-$47,000 a year.
