Wild animals!

Each of these hats are made with soft and snuggly yarn with the utmost care to make them top-notch quality. When I see hand-crafted items online, I like to know how the inside looks as well -how it was made- to know for sure I’m getting a good product. Is it hot-glued together or stitched together willy-nilly? Most websites don’t show these things or close-ups on their wares. I like showing my knitting and crocheting to be professionally done, thus the pictures of the insides.

Andrew tells me I should try to sell my hats online.  I’ve been looking into ways of selling things in the most economical way on the internet box and I’m wondering what people would prefer. I’m leaning away from Paypal —I don’t like their practices— I’ve also looked at Ebay (…but they use Paypal), Google Checkout,  Etsy… I’m looking mostly at Google Checkout because then I can use WordPress.org to set up a personal site and I can arrange it the way I want and that sort of thing. Does anyone have any suggestions? Does anyone else think this is a good idea?

    Kierst these are awesome!! I would definitely suggest Etsy. That seems to be the best platform for selling hand made goods. I hear it constantly talked about amoung friends and also Facebook and it is where I turn when I want something cute and hand made. You get a more specific crowd on Etsy than ebay. You should consider submitting these to pintrest as well and link it back to your easy account. These are awesome. Way to go Kierst!!
