"I finally mustered the courage to open a shop on Etsy to sell my pottery"

I am a potter in my spare time but didn't have the courage to put my ceramic creations out there for people to look at and buy. 

I never had the self-esteem and self-belief to think that strangers would like what I make I've just completed Vishen's Be Extraordinary quest and just started Lisa's Speak & Inspire, and this week I finally mustered the courage to open a shop on Etsy to sell my pottery. I still cringe when I look at my Etsy shop. I still have doubts. But little by little, I'm getting there. 

My aim is to become a recognised artist, to find my artistic voice and be able to take creative risks. And hopefully, tone an artist full-time. I'm working towards it. My shop is https://FrancescaCeramicArt.etsy.com
