I made the jump, and I'm shamelessly excited lol (Etsy shop)
« on: December 03, 2015, 08:16:52 PM »
I had been thinking about opening an etsy store for a little while now, as I took up wire wrapping in March and quickly started swimming in more necklaces than one woman should ever own lol. Everything I make is some how game/anime/TV related so my friends and family kept telling me I should open an online store because they thought that it would do well. So... I finally did!

Right now I've only got Pokemon pieces listed and one piece from How to Train Your Dragon, but I was thinking of adding in My Little Pony necklaces in the next batch (Cutie marks would work great with my style I think).

Can I advertise a link here? I hope I can lol (if not, mods feel free to remove it).

These are great! I love how you match the stone color with the pokemon. I also like your idea of branching out to ponies...and maybe if the MLP convention is close enough to you, you could sell some there! That will definitely help get your name out there :)

Cool!  And you have a sale, already!  Isn't that fun?!  I've been on etsy for a few years and I really want to encourage you to look through the site tutorials and help sections to get your policies section written.  This can save you a LOT of hassle should you have a problematic buyer, which I'm sure you will at some point. 
Good luck- etsy is a blast!

Thanks everyone :D

@Medley - I hadn't thought of something like that! I'll have to look in to it, because I've always wanted to go to the convention anyways :D

@Aadra - It really is! Seeing that first sale come in made my day. And omg thank you for reminding me about the policies section. I meant to have that up days ago!  :blush: lol

Great work :) you have every right to be excited about your shop.

I've only ever done a bit of wire wrapping myself.
