Lillifee Boutique




Name: Debbie Suess

Store Name: Lillifee Boutique

Location: Georgia

Why did you start selling on Etsy? Honestly, I am not sure. I had been selling on Ebay for a couple of years and was looking for other venues. I heard about Etsy through some groups and decided to give it a shot. I loved the ease of the listing process and two of my items sold on my very first day. Of course, I was sold. I found Etsy to be a wonderful place to be.

How long have you had your store on Etsy? I have had my store on Etsy since January 2007. A little over 2 years.

What is your favorite thing about Etsy? One of my favorite things about Etsy is the kindness of others. The community of Etsy including both the buyers and the sellers is very friendly.

What is your favorite item in your store? Wow, that's tough. This dress http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=10942105 is the dress I started my business with several years ago. It is still one of my biggest sellers. The colors are just so pretty together.

What is your favorite thing about Etsy? My favorite thing about Etsy is how personal shopping becomes. I love the fact that when I buy something I know that I'm making a difference in a real person's life.

And of course I love that what I get isn't the same thing that everyone else will have.

When I first started making my bracelets and earrings I was selling them on ebay. But, there are things about ebay that I didn't like; the fees, the short-lived listings, and items selling for less then they're worth. When I was introduced to Etsy I thought it was the best thing ever. I started my shop in July of 2007, so I guess it's been about a year and a half since I started selling. I love buying and selling on Etsy. Everything is so unique and made with so much care. I don't know what my favorite thing about Etsy is, because there's so much I like about it. And still more that I haven't yet explored. The treasury is definitely one of my favorite things. I love finding shops and items by looking through the treasuries. My favorite item in my store right now is my Funky Valentine bracelet. I love using the big beads and black & red color schemes.

Why did you start selling on etsy? I have always liked to make crafts. I have sewn alot for my kids and for family. I don't always have time for craft shows, and etsy seemed like an easy way to sell my crafts to other people.

How long have you had your store on Etsy? Well I signed up for Etsy on February 7, 2007. I don't think I had anything listed for a few months as I tried to get everything figured out.

What is your favorite thing about Etsy? That you can always be suprised by what you can actually find on Etsy! There are many talented people.

What is your most favorite item in your store? I pretty much like everything, but if I have to pick one I would say my pea pods.
