1-Why did you choose to sell on Etsy/ and do you sell anywhere else?

I left eBay where I had been selling vintage costume jewelry since 1999. I found etsy in 1996 and decided to open my shop Emmas Gems. After a awhile I decided to open this shop to list my handmade jewelry. I enjoy making jewelry and I am always changing my focus! I have a short attention span and like to try lots of new things.I have another shop on etsy where I list my handmade jewelry supplies Sweet Vintage Emma. I also have a new shop on Artfire under my emmasgems ID. I just started over there but thought I'd give it a try.

2- What is your fave thing to buy on Etsy (whether it be supplies or gifts etc.)

Well, I buy a lot of supplies for a few of my shops. I think I spend most of what I make buying more supplies on etsy! I always need something! I have bought many gifts for my family too so it's a tie!

3-What is your current fave product(not in your store) under 20$?

Gorgeous magnets from rafya.
This is just one of many!

4- Any advice for new sellers?

To list new items as often as possible to keep your shop at the top of searches. Always work on making your shop the best it can be with good photos, etc. If you can afford to: renew once a day when you don't have new products to list. Pay attention to your shop. Answer questions quickly! I could go on all day!

Vintage puzzle piece bracelet from dustydrawers.etsy.com

This really cool bracelet started with a gold cab setting bracelet on which I added really cool vintage puzzle pieces with postal stamp images. Very colorful. The pieces are sealed for extra durability. Measures 6.5".

1-Why did you choose to sell on Etsy/ and do you sell anywhere else? Etsy was recommended to me by a friend and I really like the look of the site as well as the large number of sellers. I only sell on Etsy - I couldn't keep up with another site!

2- What is your fave thing to buy on Etsy (whether it be supplies or gifts etc.)I love all the vintage jewelry supplies available on Etsy - they are well priced and the variety is amazing. I would never find these items on my own!

3-What is your current fave product/SELLER(not in your store) under 20$? I enjoy the mineral makeup from PUREnaturalMinerals. You can buy small trial size containers that cost around $5 which will last a long time. I had been using mineral makeup manufactured by a big company, but feel much better to be supporting another Etsian and getting a great quality product.

4- Any advice for new sellers? Have patience and enjoy what you are doing. Take really good pictures, they are almost as important as the product itself.
