Until I make a larger profit and am able to invest in a website, and advertising the site as well as other more traditional means of advertising I need to find a low cost way to market. I have had some success on ebay. None on craigslist. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I understand you not having a large profit right now, but have you thought of designing your own website through Geociities? It is free, including a domain name. Then you can advertise it on the web, just about at any free advertising site. You can also go to similiar websites and ask the webhost there to trade links with you. Another good place to trade links is Links 4 trade. Not sure if it costs anything for that one or not, but it might be worth checking into. There are ways to promote your website without costs, until you start making a profit.

Depending on they type of furniture you might consider a flea market, or an art fair.
There are other auction sites out there estay is one.
Cafe Press might be good for you.
How about displaying some of them in a coffee house for a month or so, this way people could see how they might fit in design wise.
Check around and see what places near you are being renovated and try to sell to the company. (This will be a lot of research.) or find stores that are still in the process of opening up. They might want an unusual look.

Yes but I do not have a local one. If you like craigslist you should Google ''freecycle''. I have saved some money here, given away and gotten free stuff. I got a nice futon for free, some free tin to put an addition on my storage building and some baby clothes for the grandson. Best thing to do if you are giving away is to put the item outside for the person to pick up and request the same.

Art shows are a really good way to advertise. Check to see if there are any local art shows that have low costs for booth rental.

Local art and wine festivals and/or fleamarkets are a good place to start. Be sure to have a small flyer or brochure for people to take away so they know how to contact you.

There is a website out there that sells all things homemade. It's called www.etsy.com. There are some really interesting things on there, as I said, all homemade. Hope that helps.

Overstock.com and go out and talk to local boutiques in your area that might want to sell your stuff. Think outside the box....good luck.
