Hi Everyone,

I am new to etsy selling and while I have tons of hearts, I have no $$ sales - my sales are actually trades. I know it takes time. I am hosting a giveaway on my blog until 5-15, but not everyone that hearts something enters it. I made a facebook page too to try to get the word out.

I do feel like some wording in my shop doesn't sound right, so tonight i plan on revamping it.

I have alot more to add, but don't like to post something unless I have enough fabric left over from the test item to make another, since we only have one local fabric store and it's not always stocked as well as i would like. Plus I am a back to college mama with a toddler that has decided the terrible two's are coming early for her- lol.

I was going to wait a couple week after the giveaway is over and then see if i need to lower my prices.

Any other tips?

Well you could have a banner made or if you are savvy with photo shop and illustrator you could make your own. I got lucky, my hubby's a graphic artist.
There are also tutorials on how to make one on google.

I bought a pdf of my logo and downloaded picasa, but can not figure it out.

Did you get this figured out? You can message me if you want. I made my banner a few weeks ago but I think I can remember and help you ... :)

I think what I did take a picture, (the one in my profile) and cropped it to the dimensions of the banner--can't remember off the top of my head the size, and then added a text box. I did this through photoshop elements. Just in case you have somewhere you can try this :) Still, message me if you want.
