I've decided that I'm not going to give up my Etsy shop after all. I figure that the exposure is better if I have both shops running rather than just one. I'm going to "divide them." I've not decided which site will get which items but one site will get all the leather and handmade paper covered journals the other will get all recycled.

I'm thinking of going with Artfire with the recycled and etsy with the leather. My partner informs me that if I crunch the numbers that doesn't make sense fiscally. In that I'll end up paying more money to etsy by percentage where I need the higher dollar sales to go through artfire to pay for the monthly fee. Not to mention the higher the dollar sale the more money comes out of the item. Technically C is right. But when looking at the design of the 2 sites it LOOKS right and while I know mentally thats not the best way to go about it, it's what my head is telling me to do…
