I reviewed or should I say that I scanned your site, Again am no expert, I like clean lines and clear text, your text was fancy (and I do like fancy) for this site, I didn't want to read on, the word seem to run togather at times, the color, seem to dark, your items or pictures' were too large in some settings. Not a bad site at all, but it need's some life. (my Two cent's)

Hi,
I briefly reviewed your site. I am no expert and am a stay at home mom that also started a ecommerce business to make a little extra money.
I like the products you offer on your site, they are very unique. I think you could use a little more description of your site on your homepage. At first I wasn't sure what your site was about until I started looking at your products.
The site colors are a little dreary, I would definitely brighten it up a little. I also think you should have navigation links at the top of your site for "home", "contact us", etc.
Hope I was of some help.

1) Website colours: TOO DARK; I like the texture on either side in the "dead" space, but pick another colour.
2) No "about us". Although your name is no where on the site or in the biz name like mine, there needs to be the human element. Who are you, why did you start this business? This website will not inspire me to buy from you any more than from an anomymous stranger on EBay. I see this website, and realize that you are an affiliate that does not stock anything in-house; just receives orders and passes them on to a drop-shipper, which SERIOUSLY lacks that personal touch.
3) NO CONTACT INFORMATION! When I clicked this, I expected the form, but I at the very least expected to see a phone number (which, by the way, is NOT enough), as I could at least look up the area code in the phone book to see at least what region you were in. I realize that if you are a stay-at-home mom, you don't want a residential address, but if you go to your nearest post office, you can rent a box and list that for your contact information.
4) Categories: You had quite a few categories, but you could have put sub-categories in there for ease of use. Just my opinion. I looked at your "around the world" area; didn't even run through the second page.
Not trying to be catty or pissy; please do not misunderstand. I was given some harsh advice from a business coach, and I see some of the same mistakes I made in the beginning that you are repeating, although we have different types of websites.
Hope this helps.
Have a nice day.
