Trying something new



There's this really cool site where people can sell all things handmade - it's called Etsy.com. I've been curious for a while about how it works. There's a lot of neat stuff on there, but I wonder with so much stuff for sale, does anybody buy any of it, or is it mostly the crafters (like me) who browse the site (but don't buy anything)? There really is a ton of stuff - I just searched on "lampwork necklace" and got 410 pages of stuff. What if your listing is on page 410? How does anyone ever see it? Well, there's not much to lose by listing stuff there so I set up an account and I'll see how it goes. Anyway, here are the necklaces I posted on my etsy account. They're all solid hearts strung with either seed beads and/or freshwater pearls. $48 each. You can visit my etsy shop directly at www.studio23art.etsy.com.
