Now selling on Madeit.com.au

I have taken a giant leap (for me) into selling my handmade items online.  I have been selling at a local market for over 10 years, but this is new territory for me.  Actually this whole on-line blog and selling thing is all new, and I am learning as I go.

The link to my store is www.madeit.com.au/sarahndipity.

I have started with a few wire bound journals, and plan to add more when I get the time.  Later I may add my handmade cards, but this is a start.

This is my spiel:
Handmade wire bound journals, created from the remains of timeworn books.  The covers and internal pages have been combined with fresh pages, honoring the soul of the original book.
Each journal is truly one-of-a-kind.
I hope my handmade items provide a pleasant surprise for yourself or the lucky recipient.

I deconstruct old hardcover books by removing the front and back covers, spine and internal pages.  I keep about 20-40 of the original pages and add 30-60 new pages.  The books are then bound again using wire.
 
I would love you to have a look, and welcome your thoughts on my setup so far.  It is amazing how long it takes to get the logistics, like store information and postage, worked out (for a newbie like me anyway).
 
Thanks for stopping by
Sarah
