Any Etsy moms out there?
Hi! I'm a jewelry artist and am trying to get my Etsy shop up and running...
http://www.**********************
Is anyone else here on Etsy? What is your craft? How much time do you devote to Etsy every day, and has it paid off for you?
For me, I'm finding it's very hard to get established with 2 toddlers running about...It also seems jewelry is totally oversaturated, even though I think my gemstone designs are pretty unique....
Anyway, just curious if anyone here was in the same boat. Thanks!! :) Image Attachment(s):

Re: Any Etsy moms out there?
because you are not allowed to advertise on here unless you are a paid vendor.....

Re: Any Etsy moms out there?
Interesting, thanks! I'm a paid vendor on LI Weddings. I guess that doesn't count even though it's all the same co....
And I'm not trying to advertise---I do enough of that elsewhere!---just trying to find other moms with similar interests and crafts.

Re: Any Etsy moms out there?
I had/have a jewelry business as well. Before I had my daughter I was actually really busy and doing some good business. I had a website and sold retail and wholesale.
Now with a toddler running around (and who doesn't like to sleep to boot) I find it too difficult and expensive to keep up with the demand, but I still work when I can or when I get orders.

My husband has a custom penmaking business on ETSY. Some months are better than others. It's easy to maintain the site, but he's definitely not making a living off of it. Good Luck!

Nope, LIF is separate ... you'd have to pay to be a LIF vendor. They are blocking your information/website because you are posting about your own business on here.
And I'd bet this post gets pulled too ...
