Etsy

I've just spent the last few days working really hard on my Etsy shop (http://wwww.livinginthepast.etsy.com), where I'm selling dollhouse miniatures. I've actually sold two things now! That was a bit scary but also hugely fun, sending out the parcels and whatnot. I'm glad that my things are sellable too, I've always been a bit nervous that my stuff is total crap, only worth it if people get it for free. In previous miniatures fairs, I only made about $27. I have made almost that much on Etsy in the past week. I sold a miniature sewing machine, that was designed to look like the little pretend ones that kids in the 50s used to play with, it was blue and white and I'd painted flowers and butterflies onto the white bits. I'd only made it a few days before, I think it had been on Etsy for about two days! The other was two icecream cones that I had made years back actually, but they'd only been on Etsy for a day as well! Hopefully they won't break in the mail... I think that the woman who bought those is actually a shop, looking at her buying history. Which is pretty exciting for me! Also guess what colour I've picked for my tissue paper? :P Yep, purple!
