Never heard of artfire and just looked into it. since it's free, I may give it a whirl.

I did used to try vending at events and didn't have much luck there. That was when I was an active belly dancer myself. I've since given it up, so I'm totally out of the loop, which may be part of the problem.

thanks or the tip on artifre though. I know one woman who has been very successful selling aprons on etsy, and it certainly looks like there are many others, but I can't figure out what the trick is.

Marketing idea.. Look into belly dance schools, teachers,competitions . I did a few eastern bellydance competitions as a vendor in the san diego area. It can help draw people back to the site. I gained contact with the teachers. So I had a better flow to my site. I have not been able to crack the etsy selling mystery. It doesn't appear that it is a successful site. I know there are other sites that allow you to sell hand made goods. I think artfire might be one. You can also send in your info to dharma trading to see if they will show off your work. Hopefully you will have success!
