I've been working on the website ...

I think it's looking better. My partner liked the rainbow colors inside the actual "portal," but I think it was too much, so I took it out. I'm still not totally happy with the colors of the side navigation bar, but it's a start.

Yay new listings!

Hello World!

Hi.

Welcome to the blog for Handmade Portal, handmadeportal.com. I've started Handmade Portal after opening at etsy shop, Podstrom, and noticing there were very few free websites where I could promote my products. I'll be regularly listing new submissions to the website on this blog. And, soon after the website goes live (early June), I hope to start interviews and "Thea's picks" (or similarly named), where I'll be posting products I especially like. There will also be advertising space available, but but "Thea's picks" won't be for sale.

Hope you'll check back again soon.

Thea
