2. Etsy is cool.

I have some of my jewelry up on etsy and -- thanks for the reminder -- need to get a lot more of it up. IOW: Less DU, more Etsy.

11. Ohh, nice stuff!

I wouldn't know what to pick. I make jewelry too. Soon as I have the time I'll try to put a pic or two up. I love stones.

13. So, what's the deal? One time fee? Per month charge?

Do people order through Etsy, or direct from you?

9. WOW!

After seeing some of the artwork on the site I'm going to increase what I charge for my paintings.

Thanks for the URL, it's an interesting site.

14. That's encouraging.

I'm building up my stock of items to sell there - hopefully by late Spring or Summer. It is a great site for the small crafter. I think there is an underground movement developing away from store-bought and into handmade items these days.
I hope you will continue to share your ETSY experiences with us wannabes...;o)
