An experiment

www.fiddlybags.com

brocade whistle cases
brocade and silk violin, viola and fiddle bags
bodhran cases
gig bags
instrument bags
brocade music book covers
musical instrument bags

yet to come:
hard-sided bodhran bags
brocade camera bags with drop-down front
brocade lap-top cases

Thanks to Eric's experiment, I'm #1 on google at the moment. This afternoon Adrienne's working on the web-site to make it look more like we want it to look. We have in mind a product options menu for the add-on features for each bag and maybe even a different shopping cart that is easier for her to make the site look like she has in mind.

Now I have to lower the boom on PayQuake (asshats have taken two months worth of fees out of my account after I CANCELLED them the same week I sent in their paperwork because CandyPress doesn't support them. Three emails and two phone calls haven't gotten a reply. NOT HAPPY. Dammit, guess I have to call the bank to stop them from drafting my account and set up my merchant credit card account with Authorize.net soon as I can afford to do so. They're more expensive but I bet I'll get what I'm paying for that way.

Just a suggestion (because my husband praises it so well) but have you checked into PayPal? Not a lot of set up from what I understand and it gives you a card to use for purchasing stuff to make your items. Easy way to keep track of things. But as I said....it's just a suggestion.

And on another note, do you know a good place in the Tulsa area for decently priced brocade? After seeing all the stuff at the faire this past weekend I'm wanting to make my own bodice. I have patterns and a sewing machine but no fabric just yet. I figured you would know a good place to go to get said item.

Nothing against the people at the faire but if I can make it cheaper than what they're selling for then I will save myself the money. I'm sure you understand.

For several reasons I don't want to use PayPal for my business site; their fees are only one reason, although I do have a PayPal account.

Most of my brocades, I either already have in stock or I buy on-line. There are several local sources but they're pretty pricey.
