Selling Jewelry (Or Jewellery, for my NZ Friends)

I am a man. Not the manliest of men, I’m not great at physical labor. I’m not amazing at physical sports. I shy away from physical confrontation whenever possible. But I am undeniably a man. I’m not a particularly girly man, I don’t try to wear women’s clothing or particularly enjoy shopping. I do, however, enjoy organizing things and coordinating activities.

And that, dear reader, is why I am selling jewelry. You may or may not be aware that my lovely wife enjoys making earrings, and often sells them at craft shows and such. You may or may not be aware that attempts to sell them online have not always come to much. So we decided to combine our strengths and try a team effort in online merchanting. This week we started our master plan. I registered a new store on Etsy, called Flying Glibbies. We also registered a domain name and set up a website, flyingglibbies.com. Many changes are yet to come this week as we continue organizing and getting things together, but hopefully we will have items available for purchase by the end of the week.

The goal is to sell different kinds of things, but to start with several pairs of earrings will be made available. I’m also working on some wood crafts of a couple of varieties, and will also sell some large prints of photos. Watch this space!
