I'm a Lollishops Vendor!

I was accepted as a vendor on the soon-to-be-open Lollishops.com! Hooray! I am very excited about this opportunity because I love everything Lollishops stands for: low listing fees, a tight-knit artist community of talented women, a fantastic atmosphere to share and learn, and most of all, have fun! My jewelry will fall into the "Romantic Inspirations" category. I have to say, I've done very well as a gemstone bead vendor on Etsy, and I have no regrets. My bead shop there has been open less than three months, and I've had over 350 sales (!). But, the fees are killing me! This month alone I racked up $116. OUCH. That's a big chunk of sales. If I had more time, I'd figure out what percentage of sales that was. If I had to guess, I'd say 15-20%. Way too much. I'm hoping that while I won't be selling beads on Lollishops, that the structure will suit little old me much better. I'm a SAHM first and foremost, and the fees are just too high. I'm hoping for the best.

I've already met so many fabulous artists through personal artist pages on Lollishops. Stay tuned for the grand opening in November! :)
