yukkibear your website looks very professional, did you build it yourself? if so what software are you using?

Hi all, I've been lurking for a few days, reading through the posts as most newbies tend to do! I've been making and selling jewellery for a couple of years now, using eBay, Etsy, DaWanda and now my own website (see my homepage) as an outlet. I also enjoy scrapbooking, making cards, ATCs, sewing, cooking etc etc I find one hobby usually leads to another :rotfl:

I love all the jewellery you guys are making, so much inspiration all in one place

how have you got on with adding photos to your store on facebook? I am having terrible problems, some work but some just come up with 'error', I checked the file sizes too and they seem fine! grrr I am almost ready to throw my laptop accross the room :rotfl:

I haven't actually got round to adding pics or anything yet, just set that bit up, I saw the link on a friend's facebook, and went to have a look, and just got it linked to the page and then stopped. I'm still in the process of sorting out pictures of the new stuff to go on my own site, plus I have had work etc, so just haven't yet got round to it.

Thanks. Yes I'm doing it myself. I'm using the software provided by create.net. Very simple to use. I'm paying 9.99 each month for full shop facilities and site


Hi Benjismum, your site is great

As soon as I resized my pictures before uploading them they were fine, but before I did that all I got was errors

Benjis Mum ~ there are some lovely makes on your site, do you mind me asking - is this something you do to make money (as a job) or as a way to get your costs back for your hobby?

Woohooo I did it...I've opened a shop on my fan page on facebook & had a sale too, glad I did it now (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Crafty-JuJu-Designs/116211508405032?v=app_135607783795) thankyou so much for the info on how to do it x

Thanks for the welcome Kandi it's a bit of both for me, sales are a bit scarce at the minute so it's more of a hobby for me. I'm registered as self-employed, have been for a few years now, better safe than sorry! I also make stuff on commission for family and give as gifts. Thanks for taking a look at my site

Benjismum ~ sorry I know this is off topic, but I have just noticed that you have lost 8st 10lbs!!!! Wow - what an achievement! How did you do this?
