what about items of comfort, i have been making touch forms out of wood since my college days, almost every student had something of comfort in their rooms, maybe a doll or other toy,my son even when he was 18 yrs never travelled without a particular small blanket he had as a child .

Re: What's Cookin', Stewing, Stitching and Brewing?

ok.. I've been thinking, observing mostly. When doing a Treasury up, the more comments made , the more it seems to stay towards the top of the listings. We figured that one out last year , right JO!

So... If there are 16 listings in a treasury, we should have at least 32 comments from participants ( that's figuring that the Curator is comment to each one of the featured people.)

So the question is How to get every member to go an make a comment to get seen? Just say "Nice" is helping keep it up there.

Any thoughts or ideas?

Right Kath! I convo everyone with a message saying:
If you have the time please stop by to click, comment, heart but most of all enjoy!

It seems to help plus postingin other team disscussions and on your own FB page.

On another note!
We survived Sandy!!! Hope everyone is doing well in the harder hit areas.
Stay Safe!!

Getting Ready for the holidays on Etsy by tweeking old listing and changing titles to reflect the unpcoming holidays like Christmas and Thanksgiving or the seasons like Autumn and Winter.

This is just one of the great tips I keep seeing from Etsy.

Re: What's Cookin', Stewing, Stitching and Brewing?

Message every one everytime I make a Treasury already, Some take longer to get to it. I think it's how much they are on.

Glad You are Safe!!!!!

And I might have to do that with the Labeling. I am thinking of switching things up a bit it the shop, but not quite sure how. So far I feel as if I am losing money listing!

So here's a heads up for those of you who allow checks and Money Orders. Don't take a foriegn check or money order. The bank have to send it to the federal reserve to cash it and in my case they charge $25.00. Wow this is a sticky situation.

That's Great Jo!


I sold my "Planet of the Ape" stuff the other day, cost me a bit more ion shipping than I had planned though. I think I am just going to start flat rate pricing everything for shipping. At least I won't loose any of my sales profit any more that way!

Re: What's Cookin', Stewing, Stitching and Brewing?

Kath,
Congrats on the sale!
Do you have a scale to weigh everything for shipping? I usually figure out the shipping by sending it to the farest state. It usually is more to ship but if I ship closer then I refund the shipping.

Well as February is almost here, i thing i will be starting a new thread for Feb with Treasury themes, and i would like to see more than the "Usual " Members Making Some!
