Success! I made a shop banner for my etsy site (thanks to a great, easy online video tutorial) and listed 7 items for sale. My shop name is Mudpots. Cute, huh? Funny thing is that I picked that etsy username about 6 years ago after a trip to Yellowstone wherewe were all fascinated by the bubbling, boiling mudpots we saw there. Now, here I am trying to make pottery....Now that's foreshadowing. I only listed one piece of pottery. I will only try to sell ones that I would want to own myself and since I have put most of my pieces on a shelf in the storeroom, that doesn't leave me much. So, I am still working on my pottery development.
On the sewing homefront I put 6 items up for sale...4 quilts, the diaper changing pad and the Halloween table runner.
Even without a sale, I feel like a success! I can't describe how scary it was to set up a shop. It was a a bit of work too...writing the descriptions, taking (and retaking) pictures, making the banner, researching prices and so on. Only thing I am still unsure about is packaging. I will have to play around with a few ideas.
So, check out Mudpots on Etsy!
