Yes, I have finally bowed to pressure, and I have opened up my own storefront on Etsy. At the moment I have eight whole items available for sale! Wow!
Follow the link above, or the exact same link here, to check out my store. It’s a little amateur looking compared to some of the stores on Etsy, which look totally professional, but after several hours of setting policies and uploading photos and such, I am DONE. And in case anyone is wondering, I had wanted to name my store “Abby’s Jewelry,” but that name was already taken, so I thought fast and found that “Ophelia’s Jewelry” was still available. Ophy is very happy to have a store named after her. Pippa is just as glad that I didn’t choose her name for a jewelry store, since Pippa is a bit of a tom-boy.
Let me know what you think of my new store!
I love it! Is PayPal the sole way of purchasing? That’s fine, but I couldn’t tell — the other logos for credit cards show up too.
Cool!
Photograph a few on your wrist to show them off in action!
PayPal takes all cards, Jean. No need for a PayPal account.
Carol – great advice! I will take some additional photos on my wrist. It’s so so so hard to get decent photos, though.
And thanks for the info on PayPal – I really don’t know much about it, I’ll admit. Just don’t want to take checks from strangers, ya know.
Wonderful! Beautiful! Yay! I have sent your link to several friends who admired my wonderful bracelet! Congratulations! And I think Carol’s idea is terrific…let the public see the jewelry in action!
Also, if you’re willing to do custom orders…color, whatnot, that would be a good thing to include on your Etsy listing.
