Etsy research

When I see that sales slow down a bit I have a peek at what some successful etsy sellers are doing to increase their sales. Craftcount is an unoficial etsy shop sales tracker. You can see the best selling shops by category by country and overall best performing shops. Of course I would be the one to browse through the best selling shops in Art category!

Glass tile pendants

I guess I should have long ago written about glass tile pendants that I have been making for the last month or so. They are absolutely beautiful and such a fun thing to make! I used this tutorial for making them and I ordered my glass tiles, bails and necklace cords from Etsy.

I normally make some 10-12 of them at a time, yet I would only end up with 4 or 5 of the lot:) There would always be some little thing to make me think it's not good enough, like some tiny bubble of air that appeared out of nowhere. But the good thing about it is that I just put those wasted pendants in hot water and eventually I can peel the picture off it - and the glass is as good as new ready to be used for more pendants!

These pendants are very eye-catching! I was wearing my Irish pixie pendant the other day and got lots of complements about it!

These pendants are also great sellers! I'm almost out of my boxes supplies for them and I have to think of some alternative before I sell more!

Pendants with my artwork are available for sale in my Etsy shop.

Etsy frontpage, 04 March 2008

I finally made it to the frontpage of Etsy.com!!! In fact my little print made it there twice - first in the morning then in the evening. It sold eventually and yet I can't even describe how excited I was to find that out! Traci Horschel (click me) was kind enough to make a screenshot of the frontpage with my dandelion there (thank you Traci!)
