Well I finally made enough items to have my own etsy. It is http:www.idcityrose.etsy.com and my ebay user name is idcityrose. I have girls clothes, childrens waterproof aprons, tapestry tote bags, American girl size doll clothes and some vintage clothing as well. On Ebay I have typewriter keys, leather bag, and other things I want to sell at auction, not fixed price. I am sorry my pictures are not great but I can't afford to upgrade my camera right now so I am trying. I also can't take photos outside because we have 3+ feet of snow on the ground. Please take a look and feel free to share and I will be adding new items weekly.
Some people look for happiness, others create it!
We are never alone in the forest of Sisters! We "Mountain Farmgirls" are outstanding in our field!
Congratulations. Your items are really nice. I take my pictures near the window on sunny days. That helps some when I can't get outside. I take horrible pictures. Yours are not that bad, just a bit dark. I also use Picasa (free editing software). You can lighten them up some.
Good luck on your venture. I know you will do well!

Rose- I would love to help you take some better pictures. I am not sure how many items you have made yet or how much it would cost in round trip mailing (aka whether it is worth it or not). But if it would be cheap enough to pay for round trip shipping, you could mail them to me and I could take the pictures and mail them back.
One thing I found you have to be really careful of is getting something bright but with difused light.
Your items look great! They are so pretty! I will have to look into buying my niece a new dress for her American Girl! :)
