Selling my work. Craft Fairs and Etsy

Hello again, so many people ask me why I don't sell many of the crafts I make for workshops I often considered doing so however as I have said before space is a major concerns.
However recently I have decided that as space is limited I should make small things to sell and  have been making a range of recycled jewelry using materials that you will be familiar with such as paper,fabric,wool, wire and resin  and in the next week I be creating some papiermache bowls and other textile based crafts ready for Andovers Wrapped Up Fair at the end of the month.
 
If you are  based anyway near Southampton or Andover you can find me at a number of venue. The first being small to help me to gauge my potential audience was at Southampton Library last  weekend, this Friday evening (the 18th) I will be having a  stall at the HILT Community Centre in Chandlers Ford Eastleigh followed by a much larger event at the Andover Lights Wrapped Up Christmas Fair on the 26th November.
 
and no its not quilling
How may you wonder do I find the time ? well the fact that my son is now an adult and my partner is very understanding (well most of the time) makes a big difference.
I am also planning to have a go at starting up a Etsy Shop and need to create a website for my paintings as commissions are coming in ....Being a prolific creative If I am not busy teaching others I am usually creating my own work. Some of which you have seen here before.
