If you are an artist, then glance at the Danish portal ArtBoost. Here you not only put your art for sale, but the founders behind also helps you to promote your art for people who may be interested.
Are you doing crafts trinkets and the like is the American marketplace Etsy.com your friend. Here you can sell for example homemade mobile covers , handicrafts and other knick-knacks. Etsy.com is free to use for you as a seller, but in return they take a small cut when you make a sale. When you make a sale - often to the entire world, not just Denmark - just make sure to send a package off and so ensure Etsy.com for the payment for the item hits your bank account as soon as possible.
