Selling handcrafted jewelry

I posted some jewelry for sale on eBay the other day. You can go look up organicallysimple to find what I listed.

All my jewelry is original design, and each piece is unique. You won't find anything else like it. I use natural materials as much as possible. I recycle older jewelry as well, making it into new pieces that are wearable and fun.

When do I make jewelry? Usually after work, when I get home. Sometimes I spend my days off making pieces that take longer. A few pieces, I've created every link in the necklaces. That takes time. I used to sell books on eBay and actually made some pretty decent money doing that. But, these days I really don't have the space to store all those books, so I'm going for smaller stuff.

I also have some macrame jewelry, for the hippie that resides in all of us.

I haven't listed everything at once. I only list two or three pieces at a time. I prefer not to take special orders because when I sit to make the jewelry, I'm creating art. There's no mass production involved in what I make.
