Answer
Hi Zara,

You can and should sell your items online and sent up a website. It is not an easy question to address in a quick answer. Please take a look at my website and perhaps sign up for my free newsletter - all of which have plenty of information about selling on-line. http://design2marketsuccess.com

My quick suggestion for you for selling products online:

1. Get your url for your business
2. Have excellent photos of the work to be sold
3. Use a platform such as wordpress - which I believe is usually one of the best
4. Write good descriptions of your products
5. Make yousr site easy to navigate
6. Have a good shopping cart system so people can order online
7. Ship quickly and encourage people to buy again

I hope this helps you!

Best of luck,
