I would say things are definatly looking up for me on etsy. I sold 6 ceramic eggs today for enough to buy milk,butter, and bread and a few other things. Not bad for one days sales. I hope this trend continues. So did anybody else have sales today?

I went through a real bad dry spell that lasted nearly a year. It was horrible. That is why I am overjoyed with each sell I recieve. So far this year I have sold a dollhouse bathtub,and 8 ceramic eggs.

Congrats to you. Hope that trend keeps going for you. My etsy is slow. Still trying to find my niche at madcreekdesigns.etsy.com I'm off to check out your shop.

it is hard at etsy and a lot of work but I prefer it to ebay cause I feel ripped off at ebay. I have a clown baby on ebay right now that has 0 watchers and 0 bids and ends in 2 hours. I will not list on ebay again.

I haven't sold any copies of my book in the past few weeks, but I did sell two to my eye doctor last month. That was great. As for you, I'm so glad that you're finally making sales. I remember reading past mylot discussions where you felt you weren't selling enough. You are a person of very many talents, and I don't think there's a craft you can't do. I hope that you make more and more sales every day. All the best.

Thanks. You keep talking like that and I am going to get a big head LOL. I love doing crafts and I would be hard pressed to chooose just one to do. Today I am working on quilts and in the ceramic studio some. Tomorrow I am not sure what I will concentrate on. I am trying to get a binder together with samples of my work that way when I go to flea markets or have yard sales I can take orders and stuff.

I need to get back on and update my inventory. I am not even sure if I have any inventory anymore. I think that my account has been dormant so long that they've probably deleted everything. I don't use etsy. The only site I've ever sold anything on is half.com for my paperback books and videos.

No sales for the last couple of days, but I did have one late last week. But I have noticed that I'm getting more views in my shop over the last couple of weeks, especially on the weekends...so people are looking to buy. As soon as I figure out what pieces I'll be placing in the gift shop at the beach this coming weekend, I'll be adding more inventory to a few of my online sites, and hopefully that will attract some buyers. I'm glad your momentum continues to roll towards the positive for you! I had a great idea for you that always seems very popular on Etsy... sales fairies. I made a few from polymer clay last year and they all sold almost immediately...if you made little sales fairies, I think they might sell pretty quickly... I've seen quite a few threads where shops were asking someone to send them a sales fairy...anyhow... It's great to hear that the sales continue for you...hope you make many, many more!
