We went to Apple bees for dinner and were the only ones in there for the longest time. Nice and quiet. We were away from home at a hotel that is why we were eating out on Easter evening :) incase you were wondering :) Not sure about Etsy..I love to shop on it...but never sold on there.

Honestly I think all places should be closed on Easter Sunday.<br /><br /><br />I'm not into Etsy so much, I need to go browse and look around someday soon.Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13361021061120587068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9192426346112469333.post-18338103097495582442011-04-26T09:48:22.029-04:002011-04-26T09:48:22.029-04:00Kelli, try right button clicking the comments you ...Kelli, try right button clicking the comments you can't reach, and open the window in another tab. That's why I had to do until I switched to Chrome. <br /><br />I'm still figuring out my way on etsy, but if you have something you want to share, I say go for it. Read through the forums on etsy made for sellers. There are TONS of good info there. <br /><br />I loved reading that the stores were closed for Easter. Would that we would all take a weekly break to worship, rest, and remember. "Be still" seems even more relevant than ever. If only one day a week. :)<br /><br />Good luck and happy thoughts your way.chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16320267523897987719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9192426346112469333.post-56607836922996098092011-04-25T21:37:58.948-04:002011-04-25T21:37:58.948-04:00I clearly do not have an Etsy shop, and wouldn'...I clearly do not have an Etsy shop, and wouldn't give good advice :)<br /><br />However, I LOVE Etsy and shop on there often. I love clean, modern styling... nothing too childish or whimsy. I like CLEAR pictures with great description. I'm a sucker for a good price too :)The Starr Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05487285062956599107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9192426346112469333.post-4512158313632828232011-04-25T18:40:16.235-04:002011-04-25T18:40:16.235-04:00I think Etsy is a wonderful place...and shopping t...I think Etsy is a wonderful place...and shopping there as well as selling is really easy. However, the worst part is trying to get a sale. I think it's hard to get the first few sales. One thing that you have that so many don't that have Etsy shops is a blog...Blog, BLOG, blog about it if you start selling! And advertise it on Facebook! <br /><br />I was actually happy to see so many places closed yesterday but I was happy to see a grocery store open because I had to buy stuff to make a dish! :-)Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08417143480544776503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9192426346112469333.post-54923607646699754272011-04-25T13:35:56.808-04:002011-04-25T13:35:56.808-04:00Hello my sweet blogging friend!

We were eating our Easter dinner in the backyard and B commented that it was a real shame that Easter Sunday is just a day like any other for some people since they were mowing and such. :oS<br /><br />Etsy? I've given it some thought, but been too scared/intimidated to try it.<br /><br />Hugs!Rachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09317328366288947798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9192426346112469333.post-70572583272551438102011-04-25T09:59:10.197-04:002011-04-25T09:59:10.197-04:00I don't have any etsy tips for you, but I tota...I don't have any etsy tips for you, but I totally think you should get a shop going!

That's been the least of my stress with my etsy shop. <br /><br />The hardest part is waiting for those first few sales...which I'm still in the process of doing.
