    Those are cute! I can't craft...anything, so I can't give you any Etsy advice, though it seems the way to go these days/

    Cute! So much so that I nabbed one.

    While I haven't sold my knitted stuff on Etsy (not profitable at all), last year I sold a ton of jams, jellies, and baking mixes. The best advice I can offer is be really good at communicating with your customers. If you have a problem with an order or can't fulfill it, tell them. Most people especially on Etsy, are really understanding. Also, be willing to take special orders and bulk orders. I made the biggest chunk of my profit from one woman in Colorado who loved my spiced apple cider jelly. So much so that she asked if I'd make a case for her. Yeah, extra work, but it was definitely worth it.
