Store Front

A person I know showed me a place online where he puts up a few t-shirt designs and sells them. He is not making substantial income but then again with only a few designs you wouldn't expect to. I went to check this site out. Cafepress.com if you are interested. And I set up a store front. I can set up all kinds of merchandise for sale. I am not sure about the t-shirts. Will that cheapen my artwork? I don't know yet. I must mull that over for awhile. But....I did put up note cards, posters, and get this.....POSTAGE Stamps! Isn't that cool? I don't know who other than myself would want to pay $20 for 20-39 cent stamps with my artwork but it is awfully cool! I only have one of my designs up so far as I have to go through and resize my artwork for each and every piece that I want to set up. It is time consuming but I think note cards are a good thing to set up and the posters as well. The best thing is it is free. The only drawback to the free side is that you can only put up 50 items. If you want more than 50 you must pay $4.99 a month. Still very reasonable and....if you are selling enough from the site, you could pay the $4.99 out of your profits. I haven't officially opened the site yet as I must get a tax id number first - sigh....thank goodness for this meeting with Kathy today. I could give them my social security number but I don't like the idea of doing that over the internet to a retail business. So, yea...I am excited about this! I am off to tend shop!
