Etsy Shop Redux

Jesus, I’m exhausted. I’ve been painting and wallpapering and dusting and rearranging the shelves, and . . . .
OK, enough. I’ll bet you’ve read that same little Etsy shop cuteness a bazillion times, haven’t you? Yeah, me, too.
But I actually have spent a huge chunk of time these last couple of days going back through everything in my Etsy shop and adding a lot of new stuff. Because I went out and went through all the artwear in The Fucking Edifice, and I picked out everything I’m not wearing—which would be, duh:  everything stored in the FE—and brought it in for photographing. That’s what we did Sunday afternoon—I put on stuff, and The Ever-Gorgeous Earl photographed it.




There’s more in the shop, but you get the idea.
Yesterday I prepared all the photos, and today I entered it all. Then I went through and lowered many of the prices on the older stuff. It’s ridiculous selling Journal Skirts for anything less than $200—and even that much doesn’t begin to cover all the work that goes into them--but there’s absolutely no sense in having them hang out there, under a plastic bag, in the dark. That’s not what I intended when I made them. I figure surely there’s someone out there, somewhere, who’s roughly my size and has the chutzpah to wear a journal skirt. Surely. I just can’t stand thinking they’re going to hang out there until I’m dead. Most of them have already been in a book or magazine, so there’s really nothing else in their future unless someone WEARS them. I’m keeping my 4 favorites, in case I start wearing them again. But the rest? Sigh. They just aren’t feeling the love.
Take a look. Send your friends.
