Making (and Selling) Jewellery Hi, have you looked at the US site www.etsy.com for a place to sell your creations? It's cheap to run and easy to navigate. Nice looking and high quality website. I sell my beaded, gemstone and polymer clay stuff on there. I'm trying to teach myself how to...

I think it can take time (up to a few weeks) for your registration with the search engines to filter through and then you will appear in the lists. Make sure also that your "key words or key phrases" are registered - i.e. when somebody types "hand-made soap" or "glycerin soap" or "olive oil...

:D A big Hi to all the soap makers out there (so clever!), I'm new to this forum and to soap making. I've purchased a couple of lovely books, read a lot of (some quite poor) websites, thank Heavens I've found this one. I've made up a few small sample batches using Melt and Pour glycerin...
