Opening an online shop
I've been thinking about opening an online shop for some of my crafty wares.First, I'd start with dog collars (see Kaylee's newest, at right), some fun onesies, book covers, and maybe some Hildy owls.
Would you buy that? Would you recommend those to friends? Would you buy them for holiday presents?
What else would you like to see? Felted catnip mousies (no photos, sorry. Unless DKM has one?)? Stuffed elephants? Travel art kits? Tissue covers? Something I haven't thought of yet but you've always wanted?
I'm aiming to keep prices reasonable while keeping quality high. Dog collars shouldn't be more than $10. Book covers no more than $7. Hildy owls no more than $10.
Should I do it? Would you? I'm not looking to make (much) money, just an outlet for my creative urges that won't bury my nieces and nephew in stuffed toys. :)
Input would be appreciated!

I don't know what you are planning to do, sell it from your site or try Etsy. Etsy is pretty cheap to list on (compared to eBay and such) and you could always link back to your "real" shop if you wanted to, however, Etsy has the advantage of having a lot more people know about it and the exposure is better.
I think it sounds terrific. When it's no longer enjoyable, then stop doing it.
I end up crocheting lots of items and here they sit, in a box, trying to figure out who they want to go to. Outlets are good.
I'll get a pic of the mice to you
I think it's a great idea!
