Call afew consignment and/or thrift stores and talk to people who have done business with Ebay. See what they have to say and make your decision from that. It really depends on what the product you are making is as to what would be the best place to sell it. The people who are actually in these businesses or have had some experience with them would be the ones to give you the answer you are looking for.

I dont think I would go to thrift stores to sell my stuff. I would go ebay, etsy, or even see if there are kinda like market places in your area. I know in my city there is a store front that I can buy space and set up my jewelry and they'll sell it and I go in an get my profits, and put new stuff out. I havent checked it out yet though. But I also plan n going to art shows and craft shows in my area. A lot of local churches host them and it not only helps me, but also helps the church.

well, why not all of them...
post them on e-bay, make a deal with an accessories shop, do consignment or if you have the budget, maybe you can rent a small stall on the beach or something and sell them there. ebay would be easiest coz you just have to post unlike in stores, you have to have inventory, you need to have staff or yourself there to be the sales person and stuff like that..
it's really your choice, but as a start maybe you can try ebay

You could try eBay yes but there is a site called etsy that is all about people selling their home made arts/crafts. I would recommend having a look there and seeing what you think. There is also a similar site, like esty, called bluejay. It's not as popular as etsy, but it's getting more and more attention every day and growing in traffic the site recieves. So those are two sites I would recommend taking a peek at.
Also, why not try a flea market, or getting a table/booth at a fair. Lots of people make things all year, then when the fall comes aroud they have a bunch to sell. And the fall is when alot of arts and crafts fair start. I don't know the name of the site, but there is one that you can look up fairs, carnivals, and other events that are near or around your area. Most have a small fee for the spot, but it's another option you could look into. :D
