Etsy: Quit your Day Job Feature

NC Triad Etsy Team Member bodhicitta featured on the Etsy Quit your Day Job Series!!!!!!!

Zeke of bodhicitta was able to successfully cut back on the hours at his previous glass fabricating day job until he was able to give full notice and venture into a "right livelihood," running his own environmentally-friendly business selling recycled post consumer wine bottles. Zeke notes Etsy enabled him to make this leap and advises reading the business articles on The Storque. Keep reading to find out why Zeke says every Etsy seller should learn the basics of SEO and why he thinks he just may need to invest in a trust time-clock.

On going now is,"Can you survive on your art fair income alone?" this is on ArtFairInsiders.com they have several groups and several threads going.

CRAZY NEW TEAM MEMBER CRASHES JUNE MEETING

Karol Harris aka karolsvintageart.etsy.com, girlglitter.etsy.com and quiltopia.etsy.com crashed the June meeting of the NCTriad Etsians...

Just kidding. I was invited by Anna (zellbell.etsy.com) and was happy to meet all who were there (Zeke, Anna and Justiann). After briefly sharing stories of our recent networking experiences, it became apparent that we are a motivated, creative group of friendly artists eager to expand our artistic opportunities.

I couldn't be happier to be a part of this group and hope that we will grow in number as the year progresses.

I am always on the hunt for treasuries and look forward to snagging one for our group soon.

New Planters! I need some feedback!

Hey I just made these new recycled planters out of reclaimed Jagermiester bottles. They have two 1 1/2 inch holes drilled into the side that fit a small succulent or herbs. I am calling them "Garden Parties!"

I am looking for some feedback on what a good price for this item would be. Any feedback would be much appreciated. Leave a comment on this post or visit my store and leave a convo.

Thanks so much!!!
