I love browsing through this site - I hit it at least once a day. I love seeing what other people are working on.

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.

15. Sorry -- I wanted to get a few more things up

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?

[proReality]

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.

10. I love that site!

As soon as I get enough stuff together I'm going start selling stuff there. (or at least trying!)

[lies and propaganda]

12. do it!

get your store out there asap! My first two sales were Day one and Two that I had my store.
If you have any questions when you do set it up, feel free.. Ive learned a secret or two ;)

[diamidue]

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)
