How much is it to get your own website? Is it hard to set up?
I too have looked at Etsy and think the prices are high, although I do understand the work that goes into things.
I traveled the craft show circuit for 17 years, and it has pretty well bottomed out due to the imports and economy. People think of them like a flea market and are always looking for a bargain..To make money you need to invest in the bigger juried shows, and then it is even hard to make back expenses.
I just went out on disability and have been researching ways to supplement my income. Another venue I am in the process of researching is amazon.
Good luck and keep us up to date if you find anything good, and I will do the same!!
