iCraft.ca

Recently, Southamptoncreations made me aware of a new site where independent artists can display their work for sale. It's called iCraft.ca, and right now you can sign up for a "showcase" free for one year before April 30th.
Yes, if you sign up before April 30th and list at least one item they will waive the $25.00 annual fee for the first year as well as all fees involved in selling!

iCraft.ca is an outlet that those who sell their hand-crafted items may want to check into. The site is designed to allow crafters to sell their work. There are also a message board, an events calendar, and a number of great content-related articles.

Though this is a relatively new site, from what I can see there are quite a few people over there already.

I have set up a showcase there and added just a few items right now, but the process can be made fairly simple by opening a window for your Etsy shop and one for your iCraft.ca showcase and using "copy / paste" to add your items.

You can check out my iCraft.ca showcase here - http://www.icraft.ca/crazytimescandles

Jewelrybytiti has a more full showcase here as an example - http://www.icraft.ca/jewelry_by_titi

If you sell, at least go check iCraft.ca out! Hey, it's free...

Thats awesome that iCraft.ca has extended the free sign up. When I signed up it was only free if you signed up until March 31, 2008. I hope more people hop the boat over there and get some sales going :)
teehee.
