Well i must admit i’ve been procrastinating for quite some time setting up an online shop. I’ve gone back and forth seemingly forever trying to decide if it’s the right path for me as I normally work with galleries and shops. But after getting more and more tired of forking over 40-50% of my sale price to someone else, i’ve decided an online shop might be worth the effort. From the looks of things it’s been a fairly sucessful path for others so here goes – fingers crossed – wish me luck!
Sooo…..You can now find me at caroleepp.etsy.com
Please check back regularly as i’ll be posting more items over the next few weeks, there’s more porcelain to come and even some woodfired pieces…I hope you like it and please feel free to pass the link on to anyone you think might enjoy the work.
I’ll try and post in the future about how things are going in case anyone else is wondering about how to go about it, or if it’s worth your time or not. In the meantime I’d love to hear from others about their online experiences, good or bad. Please leave a comment.
Thanks and all the best!
