Thought I would share this even though I am not sure how many at ArtMetal know about Etsy but I stumbled on it through a blog from Seth Godin. It is a web site specifically designed where you can join and setup your own shop for handmade products. So even though I have my own web site with a virtual storefront where people can purchase designs I also just setup an Etsy shop since they can generate huge traffic from around the world.

If you don't have a web site with a virtual storefront to sell your handmade artisan pieces I suggest you check out the video about the site at http://www.etsy.com/about.php and see if would work for you. My belief is that whenever you can expose what you do it is worth it. They take care of the financial transaction to the sellers for you with a small fee for doing it.
