Tonight I made my first sale on Etsy. I am overyly thrilled and it has added to my artistic drive. I have so many ideas floating around in my head at the moment that I am trying to compartmentalize everything so I can move forward and not scew everything up. Being a working artist now is thrilling and I feel somewhat guilty because it really doesn't feel like work. I just get to play with stuff all of the time and keep track of everything in a spread sheet. God bless spreadsheets!
Since I have made my first sale I have tried to involve myself more there at etsy and will continue to do more. I have found that the best way to make sales there (by looking at what others do) is post on the forums as much as you can. The more people that know you, it seems, the better sales will be.
So all of this led me to my first blog ever. Who the hell is going to read this? God knows. But at least I can spit this stuff out here instead of driving poor Mike (my future husband in one month) crazy with all this talk. My next move from here is to pitch my work to local shop owners here in lovely Milton, PA. I think I have gotten my work to a level that it will be perfect in the local shops and in the past week I have learned that interiolr designers are an artists best friend. If anyone out there want to see some of my stuff please go to http://www.jennifertilleyvoegtleart.etsy.com/ and there it is! nighty night!!!
