Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Etsy (best for vintage aesthetics), eBay (best for international reach), or Facebook Marketplace (to avoid high shipping risks and costs).
Selling Tips
Shipping glass is risky; double-box and use ample bubble wrap. Use keywords like 'Depression Glass Style', 'Pink Swirl', 'French Glass', and 'Cottagecore'. Photograph against a white background to make the pink pop.
