Finally got my Artfire account up and running. What a sophisticated site. So many questions.
So I posted some things. Hoping to sell them.



I even added free shipping. Hope that draws a few people in.

Another Contest!!!!!

I entered another contest on All Free Crochet to win 3 skeins of Caron Yarn. Keeping the fingers crossed.

New Ideas

Today I spent the whole day deciding I want to take up silversmithing. I've got most of the tools, I just need the materials and they can be costly. But it's something I want to do. I'm going to try and sell the things I have in order to raise some money for the things I need. Sounds good, now to put everything to the test.
I still haven't posted my things on Etsy, so I have to get to that pronto.

Before I get too old, this will be my new quest.

Beaducation is a great place to learn new things!

Steal Our Buttons!

Changed to ebay

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to sell anything on my Etsy site, so I switched some of my things to ebay and they sold within 3 days. Amazing difference! Why? I think it's because the things I had to sell were supplies, books, bead making kit, etc. I'll try to keep my jewelry on Etsy but I think if it doesn't sell, I'll start an account on Artfire, and see how that goes.

When I opened my Etsy shop, I did fairly well, then it all went south. Maybe my prices were too LOW.
Just because the prices were low didn't mean the quality was!

This should be an interesting experiment.
