  • another question: do you have to put your adress and just there's because i dont want them to know MY adress!!!???

  • @MsLoveforever16 You don't have to put your address, but if the package happens to get lost (aka you have the wrong info for the person you are sending it to) then there is no way for it to be returned to you.

  • hey sarah can you put a regular yellow bubble wrap envelope with a charm or necklace in the public blue mail things idk how to say it or do you have to take it to the post office (i do have a post office near my home) and ship it there through the little slots they have there or do i have directly go the the people and ship it from there and srry one more question can someone send me like or a check through mail or do i have to get a p.o box to make sure it gets there?

  • @MsLoveforever16 There should be a sign on the blue mail boxes saying size and weight limits for the package. If in doubt, ask the postal workers. Yes, you may have people send you a check to your personal address rather than a PO box.

  • Thank you sincerely for this tutorial. It is the best, most comprehensive overview of selling I've seen - and I've seen more than a few. I wish you continued success with your business and appreciate the time you took to make this video. Looking forward to more of your fabulous crafts. All the best!

  • @TheGypsyblue Well gosh, thanks a lot!! =]
