Every few months I like to remind you that we are always working 2-3 months ahead of the next big season or holiday to get as many sales as possible for these yearly events because crafters purchase their designs EARLY !St. Patty's is out, so here's what I'd be focusing on now...(remember 50% upcoming season/holiday and 50% evergreen) Easter (designs for apparel, tumblers, garden flags, children's apparel, printable cards/invites, junk journals) Mother's Day (apparel, tumblers, mugs, pillows) Father's Day (apparel and tumblers) Graduation (apparel, tumblers, mugs, POD designs for giftable items) I hope this helps keep you on track! P.S. Want help with creating trending designs with AI and the SEO?? Check out the Club Here!

Sometimes, we feel discouraged, that’s because we care deeply about doing well. Sometimes, we want to give up, that’s because we’re eager to succeed quickly. Sometimes, we compare ourselves to others, that’s because we’re striving to uncover our own greatness. Sometimes, we speak negatively to ourselves, that’s because we’ve forgotten to remind ourselves of the incredible power within us. My Little Gems, are notes that are written by me, for me. I hope that they are of help to those who come across them. 😉

I have adjusted my banner and am working on my titles and descriptions in my Etsy digital store. My views and visits are increasing, hopefully the sales will start to increase also. It is a good start in that direction.

If you're a newbie like me, I encourage you not to feel overwhelmed, there’s a lot to learn, but it’s okay to take your time. I know you’re eager to dive into design, but there are foundational skills we need to build first. What’s helped me is resisting the urge to absorb everything at once. Instead, I focus on patience and giving myself a little grace. This mindset makes the learning process much more manageable. I understand how tempting it is to want to accomplish everything quickly so we can start our journey to success. However, approaching things on a "need-to-know" basis has been key for me in avoiding burnout. One of the most helpful resources I’ve found is the "AI Prompt & Discussion" and the "Value Bombs" section. Starting there has really helped me acclimate to the concepts and put me in the right frame of mind to learn effectively. I hope this helps you. 🥰

Finally got my first review and it's 5 stars! I never expected it to take so long, but I guess it makes sense when you think about it. Makes me want to leave more reviews for other things I buy online haha.
