That's right—nobody tells you what to wear, where to work, or if that report isn't on their desk by 3:00PM you're fired. Way to stick it to the man. Nobody pays you a salary, either; you pay yourself one. The average income for an Etsy seller is $44,380, which isn't dire but isn't great, either (source). It's possible to make a comfortable living selling crafts online—look at Three Bird Nest and their headbands that rake in $65,000 a month (source). That's over half a million dollars a year.
