Why did you start selling on Etsy? My passion is designing hand beaded jewelry. I went to a gem show – talk about eye candy! I start making more than I could wear. A co-worker told me about Etsy.
Is Etsy a full-time job or is it something you dabble in? I have a full-time job and work Etsy in my “spare time.”

How do you keep yourself motivated to keep on selling even if times are slow? I read the forum threads on shop improvements, take new photos, write blogs and get beading books to look for new items.

What medium to you use on Etsy? I don’t understand this question.

What are your biggest goals for 2010? Keep working on photos, continue to feature sellers on my blog, at the end of the year, I hope to redesign my blog, oh, and find the elusive answer to the right item and price for my target market.
What advice can you give to those who sign up for Etsy today? Join a team and be active. Have fun.
What is your favorite item you sell in your store? I love my turquoise teardrop necklace http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=10344011. It’s an attention getter.
What is your most popular (either by most views or most sales)?

My Bumblebee pendant has 1,485 views – it was featured by TimothyAdams designs http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=vl_other_2&listing_id=11813781
