YOUR ETSY SHOP OF THE FUTURE: ideas go here
if you were to have an etsy shop in the future, what do you think you'd like to sell in it? be vague and unformed to be sure not to violate the TOS. if possible, get a friend to tell us.
anyway, i like to sew. i'd make clothes for the underserved 5+ year old set, since as we dicussed here your options at target et al are things better worn by hookers. but not cutesy nonsense (i.e., no glitter, no ribbons, limited ruffles). crisp clean dresses, shirts, shorts, rompers, etc. in sort of mod/vintage fabrics. oh! with matching berets for the girls and caps for the boys. yes.
kiss it, nest.
Re: YOUR ETSY SHOP OF THE FUTURE: ideas go here
No Etsy shop. But I would sell baked goods at a Farmers Market in a heart beat.
Well, baked goods and veggies and farm-fresh milk and meat. Preferably bare-footed and playing an imaginary guitar all the while.
Wait. Are we gonna get banned for this?
I'd like to have a photography etsy shop. I like taking scenic outdoor pics in b&w, but I don't get a whole lot of time.
I have nothing constructive to contribute, except I have a hilarious photo of Thor that you should use to advertise it.
Wanna see?
So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
ha ha ha.
No, no. You can't say what YOU are going to sell. You can only say what someone ELSE is going to sell.
As such, http://community.thenest.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/65768586.aspx
yes!
I am going to use this opportunity to plug someone ELSE's Etsy shop, because that's apparently okay.
Updated September 2012.
Can you sell food on etsy? Because if so I'd probably make vegan baked goods. Cookies, granola bars, etc.
If I couldn't sell those then I'd probably sell something that makes green/sustainable living easier.
I would do custom wedding invites. I'm designing my sister's and I did my own for our wedding and they turned out awesome.
I'm not sure if I'd enjoy it enough to do it for other people who most likely have strong opinions...
School of the Future!!! He was so excited.

Ooo... I like this game. Lucy is going to sell her erotic non-fanfiction.
LTP is going to sell her new best seller called "Take Your Life By the Balls."
CBWM is going to sell tutus and photography and awesome baby headbands.
That's all I've got. But I'll work on more.
gozf, that is the best photo ever. there's an older school building (my guess is 1930s; it's sort of gothic revival) near where i live that has carved over one of the doors "educating the future's minds."
that always makes me laugh.
I would knit things. Like little animals. And food. I knit eggs and bacon once:

Please do me
I'm going to sell freezer meals. Because I am super good at trying to make one pot pie and accidentally making six. SOMEONE COME EAT SOME POT PIE.
I think I have 8 people in my family when I start cooking. Maybe I do need four kids.
I would definitely buy these for my kids. When I was a kid I had all kinds of plastic food, etc and loved it. They would have been even better knitted.
ABORT ABORT! YOU ACTUALLY MADE SOMETHING!!!!!!!! THIS IS TOO CLOSE TO BEING REAL! OR IT WOULD BE, IF YOU'D MADE LOTS OF THEM AND OPENED AN ETSY SHOP ALREADY, WHICH YOU HAVEN'T. BUT JUST IN CASE!!!!
Premier, you will probably come to my farm and make small placards of my cows and sell them. Because everyone wants a huber cow.
And I love all your Bix cow posts.
Me too. I love to bake. I would also sell crocheted items that I make every Christmas for the family members.
LOL, I just read the rest of your post - I can so picture you in a long flowing maxi dress and a daisy chain necklace, with another daisy tucked behind one ear too.
Just make sure you size up your customers before you sell them any "special" brownies.
Home sewn, nerd toys.
I have a pattern prepared to make some stuffed D&D dice for one of our friends not quite 1 yr old for Christmas.
I would do embroidery.
I would also do paintings: watercolor, oil, acrylic.
Drawings.
lol
and
Please don't kill him. He has a name.
I have no craft skills, so my Etsy shop would be used to pimp out all my friend's etsy shops.
My Blog
The great ML Hypothetical Etsy Shop banning of 2012. I'd sell handkerchiefs to dry your tears.
I'd definitely do maxi dresses and skirts!
I'd honestly do jewelry because I LOVE the stuff I get from my jewelry person on etsy and it seems pretty easy to make. I have no idea where she gets her merchandise, though. I've looked into it so I can make my own jewelry instead of buying hers but I can't find it.
GOZF is going to open a Bear Bar, Capes Preferred establishment.
I have nothing to do with it.
Yeah that's right my name's Yauch!
