BritMums is partnering with Etsy to celebrate great crafting and home businesses, and to provide advice for all you entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs-to-be who have been toying with setting up a business based on your crafts or collections.
We’re featuring cool crafts and inspiring creators over the coming weeks. Back this week is Xenia, an Etsy shop owner who used to work with the luxury label Natori.
Many Etsy sellers are mums just like you
You can open a shop on Etsy.com — the online marketplace for handmade and vintage products — and sell what you make or collect to millions of people around the world.
Get 20 free listings when you open your first Etsy shop. After that, it costs only $.20 to list an item for four months.
Xenia and her family emigrated to Germany from the former Soviet Union in 1995. After graduating with a degree in Fashion Design from a Berlin Fashion School, she went to New York City to work as a designer for the luxury label Natori. While in New York, she discovered Etsy. She returned to Berlin two years later to start her shop. In addition to running Xenia Kuhn, she designs costumes, authors a blog and posts videos to YouTube.
