-What made you want to start selling on etsy?
What made me want t start selling on etsy? Hmm not sure, I thought it would be fun and a great way to make money out of my detash and other supplies. I just recently started to sell handmade items on etsy and I'm loving it.
-How long did it take for you to get your first sale on etsy?
I think it took me about a month to get my first sale. It was very exciting :)

My favorite tv shows would be family guy, simpsons, jersey shore, 16 and pregnant and anything on the comedy network.

My favorite songs right now is radio love by Edward Mia.
-Is there anything you'd like to try your hand at doing? Knitting, baking, soap making, wood working, an instrument, etc.
I'd love to start sewing again and try to get better at it lol. I'd also like to try making soaps especially lip balm, but I think it may be too hard, I'll have to look it up lol
-What would you suggest to new etsy sellers to promote their shops?
For new shops and promoting I would just say going into chat rooms, and getting your shop name out there. I also find that if you keep updating your store and adding new items a couple times a week usually brings more people in.
-3 etsy shops you just LOVE?
My top favorite shops on etsy would have to be
www.berrysweettreats.etsy.com - cute kawaii items
www.etsy.com/shop/tamar- beautiful jewelry mostly made with flower cabs
