Hi - I opened my etsy shop on 6/1 selling vintage goods. I also plan to do some painting - theorem painting and acrylic painting on antique slate - in the near future. I spent 26 years in the corporate world and gave it up earlier this year. I am really hoping this shop will enable me to become my own boss on a full-time basis! Deb

Hey! I just opened my Etsy shop last month (August 9th). I am currently a college student who enjoys making jewelry. I like to use wire, glass beads, swarovski crystals, and natural stone in a lot of my pieces. I have sold one piece so far and it's very motivating. I look forward to selling more and being part of the Etsy family.

Hello, I am Cristi. I was a Special Educator before I came a mom. I have always loved dogs and sewing. My shop combines those two things and adds in philanthropy. I would really love to be able to make a enough sales each month to make a proper impact on pet rescue as all my profits are donated.

I am so excited to learn how to grow.

Wow, that lady above me looks a bit rough, but I guess she's cheap to take out? :)

Thanks for the invite, to the team not the dog!

Hi, I'm Chris, from beautiful Christchurch in the UK, living just 200 yards from a 950 year old Norman Priory Church and just over a mile from a bronze age settlement called Hengistbury Head. I love the history around me and immerse myself totally in the culture of this green and pleasant land.

I've been on here seriously for the past 15 months and about 6 months before that just putting a few things on.

I'm now totally addicted and thankfully following redundancy from JP Morgan after 15 years, my shop, website and a bit of eBay sustains my existence in a far more pleasurable manner.

I'm out there in all weathers finding the things I love to sell and it's a 7 day a week job.

I'm looking forward to working with the team to everyone's benefit and if there's anything I can do to help anyone, please just ask.

Hi everyone! I'm a wife and mom from Delaware with an art degree and a desk job:). I just opened my shop making quilled paper art. It's taking a while to get my inventory going so I'm focusing on that before too much marketing, but this team is great!

Hellos! I'm a 21 year old young man living in one of the most inactive sleepaway towns in Central Texas. Along with being a skilled papercrafter/sculptor, I am also a YouTuber trying to make a name for myself. I'm mainly trying to use this site as a way to keep myself afloat in life and to stave off incoming school loans, so i clearly have enough free time to make whatever to my heart's content for now.

Yodles! I am Carole and I am Knitwear Fashion Designer in the UK. Life is ticking on so I decided to create something for myself I can be proud of instead of just bashing out swatches for the high flyers who take all the credit. That is why I started K-nit. K-nit is handmade headwear brand but depending on success hopefully I would like to develop and diversify they range into other garments.

Check out my shop: https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/CLBeanies?ref=si_shop

and my website http://k-nit.co.uk/the-beginning.html to find out more about my love for all things knit.

Thanks

Hi everyone!

Thank you for the invite! I have a little girl whom I've named my shop after, Chloe's Cards. I love to make cards and gifts using rubber stamps and pretty papers. I struggle with getting views and favorites. I'm hoping to get lots of tips from this team.

I sell vintage clothing and it is a very competitive market. I need to work on better photos but I don't want to cut into profit share to hire a professional photographer.

I use an App that many might appreciate. It is called

Bulk Editing Tool Simple

You can download the app here:
http://www.blugrin.com/betsi/app#.UjN6C8bOmHc

After that, it is $9.99 per month for the service but it is soooo worth it. I use it all the time. I have 250 listings.

I just added the tag "dailyetsysales" and it took me five mins to add it to all my listings.

This looks like a great team.

Hi, gang,

I have 3 adult children and 4 grands (boys). I'll be the big 60 later this month. I've hung onto my 50s tightly, but I'm losing my grip, in more ways than one. LOL

I'm a found objects artist and create 3-D collages, assemblages, vignettes, mixed media, and child-like fairy creations, etc.

My sales have been poor if I look at the big picture over the past 2 1/2 years. I think tags, photos, and most of all........ marketing and Google relevancy. I've been researching SEO, of late.

Debbie, thank you for the invite! Does your team do critiques? I want to gain as much as I can in your team.....as well as support.

Hello! Thanks for the invite
I am Stephanie from Michigan. I've been selling on etsy since Sept 2011. I started out with handmade greeting cards and some painted dandelions but it has branched out (from one custom order request for a fabric flower on a greeting card), and I since learned to create fabric flowers and I sell those now as accessories as well. I just returned my shop from vacation after having my second baby girl and am slowly bringing it back. I love being on etsy and will enjoy sharing in the team with you all. :-)

Hi! I am an American girl, from California, currently living in Alabama. I love all things crafty, but my passion is making jewelry out of natural stones, gems, silver, gold and copper. I am completely self taught, so I just worked up the nerve to open my shop last Sunday— today marks one week! I am juggling my real life and family to get more of my pieces listed, and trying to learn as I go... and with enough work, and a little luck too, I hope to make this a full time endeavor.
