Of course you can also go the traditional route and sell at flea markets, home shows, trade shows, and other venues that allow craft or giftware vendors. Be warned however that not all places are going to sell great, you’ll need to check the business of each location for a better understanding of how you can sell your goods there.Selling giftware can be very rewarding, but there are risks involved and just like any business, there is no guarantee that there will be a profit and you could lose money selling giftware.
