has anyone done this? I've been keeping myself busy making custom bodysuits and baby hair clips and was going to start a FB page , what does it involve?, would I have to register as a business? do you think its better just to create an album on my FB for friends to start off with?

dont have any advice, but i cant wait to see them! x

i don't know anything about fb but you could also think about joining etsy

are they not mostly american sellers on Etsy?, I'm totally clueless

I'm really into it, just bought loads of vintage buttons on etsy to make more clips, hope I manage to sell some!

I have a FB 'page' for my cakes, it's as easy as setting up a normal page and no you don't have to register as a business, just click on create a page right at the bottom of your homepage and follow the instructions, shout if you need a hand x

Yeh as Mandy says ^^ then when you visit your page you swap over to the 'business name'. FB do it that way as one person is not allowed to have more than one account!

nope its international! i bought some jewellry from a girl down the road, and some stuff from edinburgh...then i got some prints from argentina. you can search your local area to keep postage down too so its worth looking into i think also, a couple of local arty cinemas/theatre/cafe places will let people have little sections to sell their stuff too ooh how exciting

Yeah what mandy says, when I was doing body shop I made one really easy!! xx

i've checked out etsy but they charge a fee for listing so i might stick with facebook. Now just need to think of a business name......any suggestions?

pinkyd's

My friends just set up a boncey castle business on FB, i think its a great idea

Char

^^^ pinkyd's is a great name!

Come on.... im getting impatient and want to see your bits!

i quite like using the pinkyd, I think I would need to add something to it though, I'm still not sure whether just to sell hairclips as they're really quick and easy to make.
