Etsy-ing

Is there such a word? Anyway, in order to streamline my checkout and sales, I'm adding all my listings to my Etsy Store. Gradually of course. That way, people have an easier time of ordering without messaging, if that's what they prefer. Of course, I don't mind if anyone wants to just message me on Facebook to order anything, but, I think it's good to give a choice!
Since I'm very new to the whole Etsy experience, I'm trying to keep up with the VERY steep learning curve that is the Etsy world.
I found this article online and it seems very thorough, so I've decided to take a few pointers and see where it leads.

Of course, whilst browsing around Etsy, I found some really cool things. Must not buy. Must not buy. At least yet. But, here are a few of my finds -

Downton Abbey Scrabble Tile Pendant "Vulgarity Is No Substitute For Wit"
This one is from a store called "Mod Jules". There are a bunch that gave me a chuckle whilst browsing, but Jules' selection of Downton Abbey ones are pretty cool.

ORIGINAL Large Abstract Birch Trees Painting Impasto Landscape Oil Painting Heavy Textured Modern Palette Knife Painting by Susanna 48x24
Here's another. Wow is all I can say. Beautiful. Who knows, one day I might be able to afford it, but in the meantime, I sure can admire. This one is from "ModernHouseArt".

So, hopefully at some point, Etsy will generate some sales and I can buy new shoes, or scrabble pendants, or fantastic original art.

And, if anyone out there has any great advice for selling through Etsy, please feel free to share your secrets!
