Making Money on Etsy Is Fun

Sunshine and RainbowsEtsy is great. It allows me to work from my own bedroom, doing things I love. Whether I'm selling organic recycled goods or thrifting for some great vintage finds, it's a way to make money and that makes me happy.
Making money on Etsy is sometimes hard with all the great stuff being sold, but I've learned to link as many people to my page as possible to create traffic. In addition, there are alchemy requests that can put a couple extra dollars in your bank account as well.
I love to use Etsy, and I love to think about things to sell in my account. In addition to selling, Etsy offers such an easy access to materials, clothing, and handmade items that are easy to search for and all extremely cute and affordable.
My only complaint about Etsy is that I have had to take down items that were over twenty years old, like the rules state, because another member reported me for selling goods that did not follow the rules. While I was still charged the fee, the other seller refused to rebute their claim. Some of the other members on there are truly rude, and while I agree with keeping the objective of Etsy intact, accusing me of selling shoes that they can 'assure me are too new' is quiet ridiculous, since I knew the age of alleged shoes and she did not. Other than that I have no complaints, all sunshine and rainbows.
