The shop is open in Cardiff if anyone can make it down, I'll be there on Sunday www.cavetsy.org
I noticed last year a lot of my sale swapped from the US to the UK but that was ok, I think Etsy are doing quite a bit this Christmas with etsymadelocal etc to get the UK market going so I'll be sticking around personally.
The shop looks great Sarah-Jayne. The venue looks pleasant and it looks as though you have a good variety of sellers. Good luck with it all. Hopefully you should have plenty of 'footfall' down there to make it worthwhile. It would be very difficult to get something like that off the ground up here.
Sales here on etsy are abysmal. I was hoping to give my bank balance a boost before Christmas but it just isn't happening! I'll be closing shop in a week's time - off to see my family in Ireland for Christmas and New Year. Can't wait! At least I won't have to worry about etsy for a few weeks. My New Year's resolution will be to spread my eggs across more baskets - including my own website.
I hope Christmas sales are going well for all of you!
