I tried selling handmade crafts (note cards and fabric buttons), but they didn't seem to be very marketable or popular. Also, since having my daughter (she's a year old now) I don't have as much time to sit down and craft. I decided to switch from selling handmade items to supplies. I wanted to sell things that I also personally buy and look for on Etsy. Currently I'm selling fabric and trims (in addition to the fabric buttons, which are on sale). I've also ordered a shipment of cute cabachons and appliques; which I hope more buyers will find appealing and want to use them in their own crafts. As far as organization tips, I try to recycle as much as I can. I don't like wasting things. So I save shoe boxes, gift bags, glass jars etc. and I store things in them. I also save old manila and bubble envelopes and re-use them to ship things. Though I ship items from my shop in new envelopes, because it looks more professional.

My name is Jessica jdfootloose.etsy.com my shop name is Lindys place after my grandmother. I create jewelry, crochet and handmade paper. My work space is a whole lot more cluttered now than it used to be, I had my own craft room until my brother moved in with me... Now my desk and supplies are squished into a corner of my bedroom. I use a lot of babywipe containers and Record Bowls for storage use of beads and other smaller supplies. I have a garbage bag full of yarns and a plastic dresser full too.

My scrapbook supplies are mostly in tote bags in my closet.
