Oh Wow! So here I am, posting for the first time on my new blog! What a great way to share what I love to do...crochet. I've been an avid crocheter since my early teens and I love the peace it brings me and the sense of accomplishment when a piece is made. With that said, why not share what I do, teach others, and of course, learn from others.
For my first post, I'd like to talk about "Selling Crafts". It's so gratifying to know that others appreciate my pieces so much, that they are willing to pay for my services and finished pieces. So I've decided to list my finished pieces on Etsy. I bought a book titled, "How To Make Money Using Etsy". So far, I've learned a lot and the book is easy to understand. Etsy has changed their site a little since the book was released, however I was still able to navigate the site using the book and it's explanations.
The book covers many topics like posting an item, photography, search engine statistics, and blogging, to help boost sales. It also has pictures and many examples for people like me that sometimes get lost in the wording.
Although, this is my first book on the subject, I recommend it for anyone wanting to give Etsy a try. Have you read a book that you would recommend that would help those who use Etsy? Or maybe your have experiences using Etsy and have advice to share. Follow me on Facebook and share.
