Too Early to List Easter Items?

So I missed making new glasses for Valentine's Day and I might still make a new item or two for St. Patrick's Day.

I had the urge to make some Easter Items and I just listed them tonight. Is it too early? One is pastel flowers so it will be fine for Spring, but two of them are Easter Egg Themed.

What do you think? How long before a Holiday will you list new items (in general) ?

Thanks for the help!

Re: Too Early to List Easter Items?

Nope, I would list them now :). I have just listed my bunny necklaces for easter. I think it is good to do it early. There are already easter eggs in the shops so people are thinking about it.

It's not too early at all. I need to get started on mine before I lose the window of opportunity.

Re: Too Early to List Easter Items?

Online shopping I think of kind of like magazines - work several holidays ahead. If someone waits til Tuesday to buy a Valentine's Day card, unless they are local to me, it's too late to order online. Many people plan and think ahead.

Besides, Mother's Day in the UK is in March (I think), people will be shopping for their moms.

Re: Too Early to List Easter Items?

No, Easter is a month away so I don't think it is too soon.
I have listed one Easter themed child's toy already with more to come this week hopefully.

Re: Too Early to List Easter Items?

I heard from teammates at Ukrteam that some are already getting search results for easter tags. Never too early!

About Mother's Day I am confused though.... any item at my shop can be a gift for moms and grandmoms.... should I tag them all for that? Other crafters making feminine goods, what do you do???

Re: Too Early to List Easter Items?

@Oksana ~ I guess it depends on the items you sell. I sell cards and they are specific to Mother's Day so they can be titled and tagged Mother's Day.

Just like in the brick and mortar stores, it's NEVER too early! In fact, I'm working on my Xmas stuff! (Joke, but I really SHOULD start preparing!)
I think we all want some Spring!
