So I decided to set up an etsy account for some art I might want to sell. I put up a tester item for way too much money because I’m kind of terrified to sell stuff. :X Anyone want to give me advice on what kind of stuff I should make/sell/price?

I did a show at a gallery once with my AP Portfolio class, and I wanted to sell my prints for 5 bucks, but I told myself I needed to be “outlandish” and made them twenty.  The guy at the gallery changed all my prices to between $50 and $75…

So I don’t think that your $25 is exporbitant when someone would really love it.  I’m all about cheap art (yay!) and you could do sales if you never sell anything, but don’t sell yourself short.  Or maybe just start out lower and up prices as you gain popularity.  I hope to have an etsy up when I grow some balls… heh
