1-Why did you choose to sell on Etsy/and do you sell anywhere else?
After graduating from college with a Fine Arts degree I became a partner in a Framing and Art shop in Grand Rapids Michigan. The frame shop connected me directly to the art community of West Michigan.
After residing in Grand Rapids for several years my husband and I decided that we wanted to raise our children in a smaller community in a rural setting where we could have a small farm and garden.
The trade off of to living in a smaller town is that venues for selling my art became limited. Selling on line became my best option.A friend of mine suggested Etsy a few years ago and it's been the best place to sell my Originals.
A few other poster and print companies sell my reproductions.
I also have galleries on Zazzle.com, Art.com,and Allposters.com.

2- What is your fave thing to buy on Etsy (whether it be supplies or gifts etc.)
I love to buy Supplies on Etsy,Unique clothing,and I do most of my Family Holiday shopping on Etsy. They all love Vintage.

3-What is your current fave product(not in your store) under 20$?
Lynette Clay's Etsy gallery is wonderful. I love everything in her store.
"Silver pearl night" is an original ACEO painting for only nine dollars:

4- Any advice for new sellers?
I think the key is inventory and advertising.I re-list my work on a daily basis.Advertising on weekends helps people find your shop. Hang in there !

5-And a favorite quote?

My Mother always had this sign hanging in the Dinning room, "Bloom where you are planted".

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

Before joining Etsy I had tried selling on different sites with little success. After a little research and basically kicking the idea around for awhile I decided to join Etsy because of the friendly people I met here and it appeared to be a successful market with a variety of wonderful handmade items.
I also have the first shop on Etsy (rusticdivadesigns) which I opened before Gypsy Wynd plus I sell as Rustic Diva Designs on one other handmade item shopping site.

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

I love to find supplies on Etsy. There are some great items on here that you just can't find in stores plus the sellers are usually helpful in explaining exactly what it is they're selling. A very close second would have to be the handmade soaps. Mmmmmmm

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

Besides making the crocheted cuff bracelets it would be crocheted stocking caps. Those are so much fun to make.

4- Any advice for new sellers?

Basically my advice is stick with it and find ways to promote, promote, promote. I've seen so many talented artisans give up within a month or two because they didn't get the results they were expecting right away. Running a shop online takes research, promotion, networking and of course you have to keep a sense of humor and an optimistic outlook. All sellers go through slow times especially when starting out. Don't give up!
