Selling craft work online.



I was browsing Etsy.com when I saw these cute Amigurumi hello kitty dolls. They are cute as a button aren't they? Oh, if you don't know already, Etsy.com is a website where creative people sell off their own handmade products. You will definitely find plenty of cute Amigurumi dolls like these and many others. Bead works, home made soaps, candles, wood works, etc.

It was only last week I bought a new hand knitted slouchy Beret through Ebay. It is good to know that you can buy these kind of handmade products else where on the internet. Ebay is a great place to shop at, but I feel that etsy.com may be a better place for you to check handmade items since the website is like a community of crafters from all over the world. So you get better choices.

It is simply nice that you can make the extra income out of your crafts. I would sell too if I can make some sort of craft work that people would be interested in. :P Sadly I can't. But fortunately enough, with the internet, there are still many other ways to make money. For example, with Forex online trading with Transworld futures trading, a company among the many you can choose from. You can make money from blogging too. So, I don't feel so sad that I can't make any crafts and sell since there are still other options for me to make some extra cash.

Now, even though there are many ways to make money online besides selling crafts, it would still be very nice indeed to be able to do something that you are passionate about and sell them to people from other places. :)

Those are cute! When I see little girl stuff like those it makes me miss having a little girl, mine is a teenager now.

It is always surprising to me that Hello Kitty has had such staying power. At least in the United States, Hello Kitty was just a cute little hat that was on every piece of merchandise you could imagine. Unlike other characters, she had no cartoon based on her or book series, as far as I know.

Maybe in Japan or somewhere else she has a whole biography and there is much more to Kitty than we realized...

I love Etsy! It's like going to a cratft market that's open 24/7 and never rains.
