My Etsy and Me!

Well, there comes a time in every bloggers life that he or she must try to sell their wares to the general public. I am joining this bandwagon. No, you will not be seeing banner ads for 'foot fetishes' and 'PedEggs' and 'how to get rid of assworms.' (By the way, these are the top three things that people search for an get my site. The PedEgg one isn't really though, apparently 47 different people want to see 'pictures of PedEgg Cheese.')

There is nothing ON my Etsy site as of yet, hence no linky-linky love. I am not yet comfortable with the name of it, and I am thinking of changing my name. Something more fun. Like QUEEN ENNA OF THE PAINTING FUNK or something similar. I have decided that all paintings will sell for $35 to $40, mostly because artists tend to not realize their paintings are ...not to the tastes of the general public. Especially not at $150. Plus shipping.

Speaking of shipping: I figured out to send something two days, it is roughly $8. And, unlike the rest of the internet, I will be charging $8 for shipping. Unless the boxes are INCREDIBLY unreasonably priced, but really, shouldn't that be coming out of MY overhead, not the buyers? I guess that is really one of my biggest pet peeves, people who charge $10 to ship something that I know costs $2.

Ok folks, I will be ending this post with a comic. Enjoy.

  1. Etsy is really awesome. I did it for a while-- I made crochet, felted monsters, hats, scarves, etc. I did OK, then I got bored. There's a seller who makes something called NV soaps and I buy my facial stuff there. It's very expensive, like $16 for a bar of soap (!!!) but it last a few months and is great on my face.
