Hey everyone! How are you on this beautiful FREEZING day?!?
Yeah its cold! So I decided to make something to warm my heart! Yes I got that from a cheesy Hallmark commercial but it made me smile so I'm good!!!!! LOL
So, I was thinking about setting up an Etsy store and I worked on that a little today! What is your advice for selling on etsy, should I do it? Do you all think my stuff would sell? Don't worry you will NOT hurt my feels lol. Just be honest and let me know.
Okay so Angelica and Erin who happen to be some of my favorite bloggers have started Music Mondays!!! Yall may not know this but music is my muse. I LOVE MUSIC! To the enth degree I have no idea what I would do without music so of course I will be playing along!!! Go over and join them. This song is one of my favorites!!!

feel free to stop by my blog anytime, I'm still kinda new and really trying to get myself out there starting this year!
Definately sell on Etsy! I love Etsy and all of the other shops and goodies that is offered. I would just say research prices before you price what you want to sell! Also, just like in retail stores make what is currently "hot." Like right now I have been selling Valentines day cards. Its a great learning experience. :) This banner is gorgeous! I could see it selling on Etsy ;)
ReplyDeleteOMGosh! What a beautiful banner! I LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for mentioning me! That was sweet! :)
I have been selling on Etsy for 5-6 years now... I can give you lots of advice. Probably best to talk... lots of info.
Ruthie :)
