Shopping venues

As I said in an earlier post, I've chosen Etsy for a venue because I like the community and enjoy being around like-minded people.  However...I'm starting to think that it's a great place to set up shop, but a poor place for selling things.

So, I'm in the midst of building a new shopping cart and will move my "base of operations" to my own domain when it's ready to go.  In the meantime, I'll keep the Etsy shop and move my inventory back-n-forth as it seems prudent.  If it's raining, I'll be sure to have umbrellas in both locations, but most of the time I'll keep the majority of my current stock on my new site.

If sales on Etsy improve then I'll revisit this decision, and tweak things as I go to make the most of the circumstances.

In the meantime, I have some beautiful moonglow buttons to sell...I'll be listing them in the shop over the next few days, as I get everything catalogued and pictures taken.
