Is Christmas always this busy?

[QuirkyCabbage]

Hey folks!

I only started Etsy at the end of January/beginning of Feb and I have to say I didn't expect it to take off this much! I started as artsy things are good for your mental health and it filled some of my day while I was at home doing very little. I have art in my blood with a creative family so its something I was already familiar with.

Over the past week or two I have noticed a significant increase in sales, Usually it's one a week or so, and today I'm going to the post office with SIX items. Is Christmas always significantly busy or have I been lucky? How is this time of year for your shop?

I'm suddenly having good sales also and just opened shop in Feb so this is my first Christmas season as well. Your shop items are great, unique and appeal to a certain age group.
You can even increase your sales a lot more just by using ALL the allowable spaces in your titles and tags. Your tags can usually hold up to 3 words with 20 or less letters and spaces.

Hi Dani. Yes, Christmas can be crazy. For most sellers, November and December are their best months. Here's wishing you wonderful holiday sales. :)

I sell party supplies and sell a crazy amount every month however, when it comes to November and December, I notice I am slowing a little. Maybe people throw less baby showers and weddings in November and December?
