Quote :

""ControlHer" Ever wanted to beat your arrogant opponent with the controller in your hands? Ever wanted to spank your submissive that just whipped you at Smash Bros. or Mario Kart? Allen and Krissy have. And thus the "ControlHer" was born. It's an ergononmic re-envisioning of the iconic Xbox controller. Allen carefully deconstructed an Xbox controller and retrieved the button and cable connector. He added an acrylic rod and a wood handle to create this crop. There is no leather involved in this toy, so those of you that are looking for vegan options, this may be perfect for you!"

My sister started a shop

http://www.etsy.com/shop/CraftyCarolinaGirls?ref=top_trail

She hand paints these, and as someone who has been receiving these things for years I can assure you they are beautiful and last forever. I'm sure she could take special requests, too!

^those are pretty good.

I started an etsy shop for my shitty paintings a few months ago:

11/6/2013 10:03:14 AM

I bought several things for my wedding and lots of jewelry and a couple headbands/clips. All good experiences. I got my tww secret santa gift from there last year as well.

I make tap handles for kegerators. Etsy has been awesome for me as a seller!

My store: https://www.etsy.com/shop/HomebrewedHandles

Let me know if anyone's interested. These make great Father's Day and Christmas gifts

I remember when you were first dabbling with those in the HB thread. How many orders have you had through etsy?

11/7/2013 12:45:06 PM

I recently ordered some hand painted NC State wine glasses for my wife's birthday. Completely customized the design (swirls, dots, chevrons, etc.) with this logo on them:

It was only like $15 per glass too.

I've bought so much stuff on etsy over the years. I love the concept and wish it hadn't gotten so inundated with people selling SHIT.

I'm buying a custom version (smaller, with the heart where Cincy is) of this:

I just counted. 61 orders totalling 130 tap handles since March 18.

I've sold about 30 outside of Etsy to friends, etc.

I'm also a paying vendor on Homebrewtalk.com, so i've been "marketing" on there, driving traffic to my Etsy store, but I'd say about 85% of my traffic/purchases have been organic searches through Etsy.
