I did do my own website using Shopify.  It has a lot of built in tools that help with getting your site noticed.  I don't really advertise.  Somehow people fid me.  I'm not sure how.  

I never tried Ebay.  Etsy was not that great for me.  I have my own website and get a few orders from there.  My biggest money makers are craft shows and I have my products in stores on commission.  I do have one wholesale account.  

I am 68 and also on social security and I know exactly how you feel!  I guess I will be working until I die!    

I went to my insurance agent for help with insurance.  I used to have an insurance company that was just liability but they no longer offer that insurance.  My agent found me another company but it is also a home insurance company.  So I have the bare minimum on the home coverage and the most of the cost is for the liability part of it.  It is $459 per year!  Before I was paying a little over $300 per year so ouch!  But now I have tons of coverage on my home.  

So long story short, if you have an agent talk to them and let them know what you need.  Hopefully they can find you something.  I know some people go through Indie and I have not checked into that lately.  When I last did it was cheaper for me to go on my own because you have to pay for a yearly membership with Indie.  I think there is the Soap Maker's Guild too but I don't know much about that one.

Good luck!

  Wow!  I used a rubber glove to tighten those bottle caps.  Maybe too tight!

Ugh!  Didn't I put tape over the flip top to hold it down?  So sorry about that.

Thank you.  The only thing that shows is your name and email.  I will get it out in tomorrow's mail.

Silly me!  I guess I would need your address!  LOL!  

Thank you!  I should be able to get it out tomorrow.

A regional rate box A is $8.15 for shipping.  The FOs are $18.50.  The total is $26.65.  If you want to go ahead please send a paypal gift to pcbrook@tds.net.  $26.50 will be close enough.  Thank you.
