    Start a website and sell them, go to local stores, go to flea markets and craft shoes and offer them for sale.

    You may need a tax ID number in order to do so.

    You do not need a tax ID to do this. That's doesn't mean you don't have to file taxes -- that part I don't know cause this is kind of coming under the realm of hobby and I don't know that area. But your SS will serve as a tax ID.

    You might need a vendor number, but that's a different matter. However, I've never bought a painting casually off someone like that and actually paid tax on it. That's not a federal thing so you have to check locally.

    That's why I said you "may" need a tax ID number - I was an event coordinator and ran trade shows and events. No one exhibited or sold without a State Sales Tax Number. No one.
