owning craft stores/selling crafts on the internet/selling crafts at shows

Ladies,

Do any of you own your own craft business? Do you sell crafts at shows or on the Internet?

I'm just curious because I was thinking about getting started on selling my own stuff. I am going to start out by making some hemp necklaces and bracelets, taking them to Hash Bash (it's a thing in Michigan that happens on the campus of U of M every year...basically ppl get together who are advocates for the legalization of marijuana) with me and try to sell some. I was thinking of just taking a small basket of stuff with a sign and see how I do. A lot of people sell bowls and bongs on the street that they've made, why not hemp?

So I'd just be curious to know if any of you had success (or failure) with selling your wares :)
