And it really is quite a case of “beginner’s luck”! That’s one of my items on Etsy Success Newsletter! Who would have known I would get the first picture right on top too! Wow! The views it brought in! A few sales and a few convos… and 1000+ views on that item!
The newsletter can be found here.
Just really excited! I woke up to email activity I heard on my phone and I went to check. Looked up Google Analytics and the views had spiked! 2nd time this week, but even …

I’m clearing out my some Stickerbooks I made a while back! I previously dropped the price from $7.99 to $4.99 and now I’m letting them go for 6 for the price of 4!
I’ve got 26 left, so grab them while you can!

Wow! I’ve made it to 100 listings! Currently 53 items for sale, 42 items sold, 5 items renewed. That makes 100!
Heading slowly to my next goal of 100 sales. The pass week has been busy busy busy with so many convos that sometimes I feel bad for not being friendly enough! But I thank all of you for your recent purchases, convos, views, hearts and interest in my work!
I really feel this is something that God has blessed me with and I really want to grow it and make it …

Went through Etsy’s Alchemy section today. Found a few etsians needing small packaging solutions. Etsians are so friendly aren’t they… :)
I started cubid specifically trying to reach those who needed a fully customised box, without the bulk of the thousands, meaning handmade businesses like jewellry and accessory makers. But this problem still persists – $1 per box feels expensive. After pricing their lovingly handmade item, according to the material, design and time spent, putting it in a box and forcing the price up by another $2-$3, just doesn’t feel right. …

Here’s just a little tip for adjusting your Etsy Mini.
If you notice, when you simply add the code to your blog, be it a side bar or on your front page, it has no alignment. By default, pictures and other content align to the left (different when alignment is set to left). When searching for tips on putting up your etsy mini, I realised all I needed was this one simple code <center> and </center>

[/inline]

The above is my etsy mini without adjustments. …

I’ve reached 100 hearts on my etsy shop! Hurray!
Thanks for all your ?! It’s been an interesting journey so far. Now the next goal: 100 Sales! And more!

I’ve decided to take a new approach to how my listings look.
I previously thought I needed to show the best representation for my products. Produce samples – design, print, cut, fold; set up photo shoot – lighting, display, camera, tripod; post editing – import, photoshop, filter photos. A lot of work for 1-3 products. Sounds normal for most handmade products on etsy, but if you look at what I do, it really doesn’t make sense!
The products I’m selling are all custom-made to each individual. I now take on the approach …
