    Go to Etsy.com and read all about how to sell your crafts. It a great way to go and get lots of exposure. Good luck to you!

    Look around and find a good place to get some web space. There are some really good free hosts out there (such as) or you can always purchase a site. Then get pictures posted of the merchandise you’d like to sell. First though you’ll want to decide how you’re going to accept payments, how you’re going to ship products, what you’ll charge for shipping, etc. Good luck with this adventure!

    It’s probably best to start on eBay. You’ll get your “start up” funds and see how other people like your stuff. While you do that you’ll need to work on the real business part like the license, tax id #, web page (I like 1and1.com) and all the other business basics.
    Good luck!
