Wow, turns out Etsy is getting harder and harder to deal with. Case in point - I have some of my pieces cast by my friend on the central coast of CA. In his backyard. Now Etsy is requiring me to fill out an excessive multipage manufacturing relationship form, including photos, process and diagrams. Not even kidding.
And so, I am hereby looking for an alternate handmade marketplace. If anyone has a suggestion, please throw it my way via comments or an email.
Conversely, it may just be a sign that it's time to do my own site and build up the business a bit more. Yes, it could be that time...
And for those that are curious... I decided to remove all my cast pieces from the Etsy site. They have become too much of a hassle to deal with. I am leaving my fabricated and quick cast pieces up, which includes silver, 18k yellow gold and a bit of copper, and for now, that'll have to do.
