Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

I like all this good news and happy vibes!

I re-opened my shop after a two year hiatus and (I think) it looks great! Sales aren't through the roof yet, but I am consistently adding vintage inventory and people are responding well!

Check it out :)

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

My younger sister lives in a group home and has a developmental learning disability. She is a self taught artist. I listed a few of her t-shirts on my Etsy site to help her try to market her work. She loves animals, loves kids and creates the most whimsical, sweet animal designs. Well… she was so excited when she sold 3 shirts in the last few weeks. It really made her day! So happy for her. I'll be listing a few more! Congrats to my sister Caryn!

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

Hi fellow Etsians! I don't think I've introduced myself and my shop yet. I'm the owner and designer for FrozinMoments, a wedding stationery and DIY shop. I started this shop in September of 2014, after I realized I loved creating invites for my daughters birthday. I figured I would give it a shot and maybe eventually have the opportunity to stay home with my two little girls. I am now celebrating over 100 sales! :) next goal is to reach 100 listings before my 1 year anniversary!

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

Hi all you etsy creators...I have not as yet introduced myself, my name is Patti and I design and create jewelry here in Ontario Canada.
I am celebrating because I just received a lovely email message all the way from Tasmania from a lovely gentleman who purchased a pair of my earrings for his lady. She loves them!!!!
It still freaks me out when a part of my creative soul ends up thousands of miles away...amazing

Think this calls for a cupcake, once my happy tears are dry...just wondering if anyone else gets emotional

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

Hey group! I am Ivory. I decided I wanted to open an etsy shop for my birthday this year. I have falling in love with all things wedding since being engaged. My fiance's name is Frankie so my shop name represents us both "Infinityy*Forever". I specialize in embroidery and I absolutely enjoy it. I never thought it was useful during those learning time in home economics!

I made my first sale in my first week of being open! It was a large order from a complete stranger! I'm very excited about it. I have had many contact me but only one follow through with her order. I am working hard and I feel like I am well on my way.

Check out my shop and please give your feedback!

I'm very grateful to find Etsy, Etsy give me the opportunity to be an entrepreneurship. Still many things I have to learn, but selling my item internationally just never I imagined before.
I am celebrating my first review and get 5 stars. It really makes me so happy.

Thank you all..

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

My name is Yulia. I live in Kiev, Ukraine. I am a versatile artist and equally love painting, handcrafting, decorating art. So, you have something to see in my shop.
I know fine art quite well. When I travel, first, I run to galleries to look at masterpieces of art, famous paintings, and always curious to reveal something new. A technique, brush stokes, colours... New names I did not know before. I get my inspiration from the best I see in the world and of course from my Ukrainian roots.
I like handcrafting very much and I am so passionate when I work that it seams I leave a peace of my soul in each and every work I am making. My family is supporting me and I am so grateful for them. My husband Alex helps me a lot and I love him!

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

Hello, everyone!

I'm a fairly new seller here, I opened shop 7-3-15 I make dessert themed bath and body products!

I have a few milestones I'd like to share with you!

1. I made my first sale/commission order my first week of being open! It was for a co-worker, and it was my Cotton Candy body spray! It was very exciting and encouraging!

2. I've just added a new flavor to my line, Cotton Candy Milkshake! Putting me at 8 listings so far!

3. It's a little silly, but it's the most important one to me. I got my crush to be my designer! He works on all the designs I give him and he's created my logo and label designs for me so far! He's the best! <3

Just can't seem to make it on Google search, though. Not sure if it's the wording, my tags or what!? lol @___@;

Thanks for the thread and I'm really happy to see all the seller's milestones and accomplishments!

Take care, guys! ^-^
