I just finished re-designing both my sites and linking them back to etsy. Etsy doesn't allow you to post links or URLs anywhere in your shop to your website as it encourages buyers to purchase your items elsewhere and that's considered fee avoidance. You cannot list an item for sale on Etsy and then list the same item for sale anywhere else.

Previously, I had been listing items on etsy and listing different items on my own website. This became a bit difficult for me, like trying to run numerous shops when all I really needed a website for is to drive more traffic to my etsy shop and list more information, have a page with it's own look and feel that tells people what my designs are about.

I've basically taken advantage of Etsy mini to create my website and all my items are linked back to etsy. All items can only be purchased through etsy so it's not fee avoidance. Hopefully things will just be much easier now.

This is a new type of necklace which I did by weaving suede similar to how you would with wire and then decorating it with beads and pearls. I'm pretty pleased with the result & I love using fabric in my pieces!!
