Unique Gifts with an Ancient Greek Twist
I'm a graduate student working on my PhD, and I need to keep food in the cat dish.
I do it by selling T-shirts, mugs, blank journals, note cards, and other gifts featuring my photos and artwork of ancient Greek gods and goddesses, plus beautiful landscapes and monuments of Greece.

I get $2-3 commission for each item, and Cafepress -- the Amazon of the self-publishing world -- handles the printing, shipping, handling, and secure transactions. In the two years I've had my shop, I've only had one person take advantage of the 45-day money-back guarantee.
My most popular design is a snazzy sculpture of a Greek athlete with the caption, "It's All Greek to Me!" I've also got a lot of customers for my Athena, Apollo, and Artemis designs. I've recently added Persephone, Zeus and Asklepios (god of healing, patron of doctors) to the mix.
I've also got an online travel blog sharing the myths, beauty, and history of Greece through my own photos and travel diary.
So stop by for some gifts you're not going to find anywhere else, great for students, teachers, classical art lovers, and overeducated bookworms!
