I love Etsy but come on really?!

Hello Etsy lovers! I just found this website RegrEtsy.com and thought I'd share. Now be warned that some of the items posted on this site will disturb you. Whats worse is that they are actually listed for SALE on Etsy! I think the Etsy Admins should really monitor what people post to the site. Take a look and let me here your thoughts.
The admins for the site write some very funny comments on the listed items. I let the chatters in the Featured Seller Room take a look and they were laughing their asses off!

Playin the waiting game

    I've been working on a butterfly shaped rag quilt and had been in the process of sewing it together when my boys woke up from their nap. It wouldn't be a problem if Scott didn't need to work on reports at home today. This has been taking way longer than I wanted it too. It seems I never have enough time in the day to get to making more products.
    I think sewing projects would go by faster if pattern makers would actually cut out the pattern so you don't waste time cutting them out yourself. It takes forever to cut out the pattern then cut the pattern out of fabric and then you have to sew it all together!
   I just hope when I do get done with this that it turns out cuter than I think it will. Its a very cute pattern by Simplicity. I'm probably going to give it as a gift to one of my nieces. I guess we'll see when it gets done.

Adventures in Etsy Land

I’ve been selling my items on Etsy for almost 2 months now and have had 4 sales in the last week. Recently I’ve been cruising the chat rooms on Etsy and have found a really cool game they play called 5 min FS. (5 minute Featured seller) It’s really fun to be in those chat rooms since there’s only one person promoting their products at a time. So the rules are you become the next featured seller if you are the first person to buy from the current featured seller. It’s a great way to show off your products to a bunch of people at the same time. Even if you don’t get a sale you will have people marking your store as a favorite to buy from you later.

I bought some beads today so I could be a FS. It went pretty great. I didn’t get a sale but lots of the other sellers loved my items. It’s great to get feedback from other jewelry makers. There are so many of them on Etsy that it can be hard to get noticed. I like to browse the other sellers stores to see what they make and get to see many unique products from handmade soaps and beauty products to wooden toys. And many glass products like blown glass ornaments, beads, bowls, stained glass decorations, and jewelry. Soooo much to choose from and not enough money to buy it all!
