Hellow Bnutters! https://vance-hanna-bonsai-pots.bigcartel.com/

First off I can't thank everyone enough for the encouragement regarding not just my bonsai (of 50yrs ++ and all are from scratchy stuff....hah!) but for the patronization of my passion of making bonsai pots. Well I have been attempting to create a site.
This process has been trying to say the least starding with Square, then to Godadday IONOS and then Wordpress (which I spent 200+)........but finally found a site that not only to start was free but easy: Big Cartel

SO here is a link to my 'store' on their site. Because it is limited (free) they only allow 5 images for sale. If it works well, I'll then upgrade and post a lot more pots, but let's try this out.

Oh, by the way, simply because I insure all the pots I've increased the pricing to what others have said, as yeah, I was awarded a prize in the National Bonsai Pot Expo....so....anyhow the market will tell me if I'm to high on the price.

Also most of you have noticed I've not been able to totally figure out shipping on each one....and many of you have SENT ME MORE MONEY! (thanks but not needed) I will get it all figured out as I go, but starting I simply put in for these smaller pots about 18.50 as a go. No worries I'll pay the difference when stuff sells....

So with that said here's the site: https://vance-hanna-bonsai-pots.bigcartel.com/ and I'll paste it into all my notes.

Thank you so much for your kindness and encouragement. vance hanna

hopefully I can figure out how to 'unleash' or unlock the sales cart for paypal....oh lordy! Paypal says a few days to get it functional.....LOL!

Awww thank you Carol, I think that's wonderful... I really love making them and if the site goes well, I'll add on the feature to show tons of 'em all on pages.
 
Congratulations Vance looking forward to owning more of your work. Hope everything works out for you and the site
 
Thanks Tab I hope PayPal has it connected in a few days and I’ll see if it functions by purchasing one of my own pots! Hah!

I almost jumped on the Bunjin pot but too small. Love the poetry and makes me think of Michael Hagedorns whimsicalness. Nice pots and I think your prices are reasonable. Best of fortune.☺️

Best of luck on the website! I own several of your beautiful pots. Some are being used others just on display around the house.
 
Oh My I just bought a vance hanna bonsai pot from his site.....LOL!!! Bnutters, it seemed to work, I received confirmation that it was paid for and the customer info to ship to...so I think all might be working... I guess I have to pay the tax on a self purchase to California sales tax folks !!! hah hah!

Anyhow thank you all for your most kind and caring words of encouragement. It's not a big site with all my pots, but it is a starter site to see if all goes well and then I'll upgrade to show more inventory.
thank you all

I have updated my site with photos that are conglomerates such to show more of the container chosen.



and thank you people for your kind " likes' on my site. It is now fully functional and it accepts paypal and credit cards.
 
I've just decided to offer free* shipping the whole month of January 2026 so it makes it easier to take an order.....I'll just pay what ever it takes to get it there!

*going to have to be $1.00 as the site won't let me put in "0"
