I have been wanting to set up an on line shop for a while, with pieces I have made over the last few years. I have been confused about format. I eventually settled on my own shop, and have just put the first few pieces on there to show. I will be expanding this a lot in January, February and March of this year. It's exciting to finally get it "rolling", a whole new little business for me.
You can find me at
Diana Baur Ceramics! Check back later in the winter for new additions... my oven is firing away...
One baby step (or one little teacup) at a time!

Gina, I just uploaded five things to fiddle around with the layout. When I get the next firing done, I will have about 15 more new pieces, and then I will splurge for the package where I can do a custom header and put in info about myself. I am just happy to give it a shot, and to see how it goes!
Einen Guten Rutsch!!! :)
Congratulations Diana for your new shop! It's lovely!!! Good luck!
Wish you all the best for the new year!
Big hugs

Congratulations! I have thought for a long time now that you should sell your beautiful creations. Wishing you all the best in your new endeavor.

This is so exciting! The site looks great, can't wait to see the next additions, and the very best of luck to you with this new endeavor!
Good Luck!!!

BIG and EXCITING news, Di! In boca lupo! xx
Thanks everyone! I am really excited about this. I already got my first order, and am itching to get the things I just pulled out of the oven glazed (along with a ton of stuff which has been sitting around waiting to get glazed since the season ended). Orders to get out to guests and stuff now to put on line! A whole new venture for me!
It's a nice shop, the pieces are lovely and the prices are great! Best wishes on its success.
I love your website. It is laid out beautifully. Did you design it yourself? Good luck with this new project!
Happy New Year!

No, I used a web host called Big Cartel which is just awesome. I got the first upgrade and am playing around with it -- i can put up to 20 products on line with this level of service, and they provide the entire on line shop software/shopping cart stuff.
Congratulations, Diana!
Dear Diana...your pieces are absolutely beautiful! Congratulations!
Cara Diana,
Congratulazioni! Absolutely the right thing to do. How exciting - your lovely ceramics meeting a new audience. In bocca al lupo!!! Looking forward to see more of your objects. Ti auguro un Buon Anno, cara! Bacione, Ingrid in Umbria
Diana, congratulations! Your site looks wonderful and you picked some really beautiful pieces to highlight. The colours are stunning.
All the best with your online shop and a very Happy New Year!
Diana - Congratulations on your new online shop. I wish you much success.
Congratulations! What a wonderful way to start the new year!
HAPPY NEW YEAR! May 2010 be filled with peace, joy and happiness.
Cheers,

Wow, what an inspiring way to start a new year! Love your shop but am curious as to why you decided to go on your own w/o Etsy?
they are wonderful! here´s wishing you a new year full of joy, creativity, and much success! un beso-jane
Thanks again, everyone. Lovely comments! Lydia, I have not chosen against Esty, not yet. I might also put up an Etsy shop and see where I get the best traffic. I like the flexibility of the Big Cartel software, and I need to figure out how better to position myself on Etsy -- lots of potters over there. So this is all a big test case for me to see how it goes. I will seriously start marketing the shop in February, after I have a bunch of new things to add, and after I have really gotten the site design where I want it.
Congratulations to you Diana!!! The pieces are lovely!!! Wish you all success with this project!!!
And: A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
I'm very much looking forward to seeing more pieces...

I was just there and loved what you already had. Can't wait to see what else you'll be posting. :-)
I just checked out your shop Diana! I can wait for you to put up more things here! Love your work. And once you are ready- maybe I could give a quick shout out to your new shop on my blog- what say :)
