DIYPhotography: Projects for Photographers

DIYPhotography: I started this site as an amateur photographer who needs studio equipment, but can't always afford to buy the expensive, branded top quality studio stuff that you can find on photo equipment stores.

So… I began looking for alternatives. Some of them are posted here.

Bring back the joy of making something out of nothing.

Regards,
Udi Tirosh

Etsy: Buying and Selling All Things Handmade and Vintage

 

Etsy is a crafty cross between Amazon and eBay and your Grandma's basement, and is a place for folks to buy and sell handcrafted or vintage things and supplies.

It is a social commerce website focused on handmade or vintage items as well as art and craft supplies. These items cover a wide range including art, photography, clothing, jewelry, edibles, bath & beauty products, quilts, knick-knacks and toys. Many individuals also sell craft supplies like beads, wire, jewelry making tools and much more. 

The vintage items on the site have only one rule to follow: they must be 20 years or older. These items range from old boots and ice skates, to dresses, hats and scarves. 

The site follows in the tradition of open craft fairs, giving sellers personal storefronts where they list their goods for a fee of $.20 and getting 3.5% of every sale. The site is quite active: traffic runs around thirteen million dollars a month

"Our mission is to enable people to make a living making things, and to reconnect makers with buyers.

Our vision is to build a new economy and present a better choice."

Buy, Sell, and Live Handmade.
