Re: Treat Yourself Group Discussion

That's crazy Rosey. Wouldn't Barbie clothing be the same thing then? I just looked handmade Barbie clothing and they have photos with the dolls. I hope you did get an answer Rosey.

Re: Treat Yourself Group Discussion

Yes, Debbie. I got an answer but I had to email the person that registered the complaint. I have 3 things that they listed as possibilities. I am researching to see what other etsy shops are doing because it looks like they hit all the doll clothing shops.

Anne, yes, it would apply to Barbie.

I have to change all my listings. The one listed has been changed to be in good standing.

Re: Treat Yourself Group Discussion

Omg, that is ridiculous. I saw a few shops with Barbie dolls. So I guess you will have to take new photos? You had to email the person who complained? Oh my.

Re: Treat Yourself Group Discussion

Had my craft show yesterday. Not doing as well as last year. I think it is because of the election.

Re: Treat Yourself Group Discussion

Thank you all. Attendance and buying has been down every show that I have done this year. I got my listings fixed but now they all need updated pictures.

Re: Treat Yourself Group Discussion

Yesterday, was a busy day. The weather was not bad but there are fires in north Georgia and the winds shifted and brought all the smoke into metro Atlanta. It is still smoky today it is hazy and smells like burnt leaves.

Had to go to the oral surg, yesterday. The abscess I had surg on previously has returned and the only treatment at ths point is they are going to pull the tooth and reclean out the area. I then need to go back to my regular dentist to see what can be done to replace the tooth. I have this done Thursday, not looking forward to it.

Re: Treat Yourself Group Discussion

Dental work is never any fun. I do not like the dentist either. Hope all goes well Debbie.

Re: Treat Yourself Group Discussion

Hope everyone had a great weekend.

I don't know but this shop is dead. I even made and listed some ornaments. I had quite a few sales in my other shop. Maybe I have to go through my listings and check my tags and descriptions. I didn't do that for a while.

Re: Treat Yourself Group Discussion

Well, I do not think the tooth was what was causing my strange elevated lab work. I just spent the night and day in the hospital with a 102.6 fever , dehydration. They decided I had a bladder infection that went crazy. They have sent me back to my PCP and urologist, with the suggestion that if the urologist does not do something different in my treatment plan to find a new doctor. Feeling much better just real tired, between the IV meds , fluids and vital checks I got very little sleep.

Re: Treat Yourself Group Discussion

Debbie, so sorry you aren't feeling well.

Anne, my shop is dead too. The letter I got from etsy didn't help either but I did change photos and descriptions. Hope that helps. I'm glad though that it was just a clean sweep of the whole doll category and it just wasn't me. Makes me feel better but the holiday buying season will be a bust for me on etsy.

Re: Treat Yourself Group Discussion

If I'm remembering correctly, Etsy always seems to pick this time of year to make changes. I really don't understand the doll category because you weren't selling the dolls. It's really ashamed. I'm sure this would be a busy time to sell handmade doll clothing.

Well, I just received an order from my customer that orders all the time, so now I have 250 flowers to make. I won't have time for Christmas items anymore.

Anne, this time the changes weren't by etsy but all is good I think.

Adding new listings today. Hope to get my inventory up for black Friday and cyber Monday.

Re: Treat Yourself Group Discussion

Rosey, I actually sold an ornament. Maybe it pays to complain. I hope you can get a lot of sewing done.

I don't know but others in the forums are complaining about no sales. I can't keep up with all the changes Etsy makes so I'm not sure if there were recent changes or not. I guess I should look.

Re: Treat Yourself Group Discussion

Hi guys, I believe etsy was doing testing on possible changes but stopped them. The views I my shop have been slow but did just receive an order that the had a glitch and went through twice.

I am waiting to hear from etsy support to make sure I just need to refund one of the orders. I hate to refund to find one charge did not go through and then I have to bill the buyer.

Anne, I know what you mean about making Christmas items, I had planned on making ornaments when my orders went crazy. Oh maybe next year.

Re: Treat Yourself Group Discussion

Anyone have a good home remedy for fever blisters. Due to my 103 fever I had and my poor immune system the are around my mouth is covered in blisters. I have been putting abreva on them but it is not stopping the pain. I can not take any oral meds for them due to my poor functioning kidneys.

Re: Treat Yourself Group Discussion

Debbie, Oh no. I do not have any home remedies. Maybe some peroxide? My mom always said to that for sores in the mouth but not sure if it would take care of fever blisters. Maybe crush an advil and make a paste with it.

Re: Treat Yourself Group Discussion

I did get a sale yesterday and the day before but I think they are coming from facebook or Instagram. I'm trying to post one a day to each of those sites. Trying to finish off what I did get done this week. So far 14 dresses and not sure about the shirts.
