Little bit excited, etsy love

There has been a little bit of excitement here this week.

Mr M was checking his stats of his new Moerkey Etsy shop when he noticed a tremendous surge in traffic. Like from 400 visits to over 8000 in a day.

Lucky him, he had been listed at the top on an Etsy newsletter. Apparently this is big! He was thrilled.

It has resulted in quite a few sales and all of a sudden he needed to come up with a packaging strategy and a bit of branding.

It is still all a work in progress but thrilling to see him having some success. 

Lovely Janette from My Sweet Prints and Jules from the Diversion Project quickly let us know what was going on and Janette even emailed through the newsletter.  Mr M was thrilled by your their kindness.

Now the giveaway is still open so pop over here and leave a comment please.

Happy Weekend.

PS if you are looking for me, I will be lazing around in my pjs enjoying the start of the school holidays and the first weekend of

 no football. 

Yay!!!!

Etsy... setting up

Hooley Dooley, why didn't anyone tell me what a hoohaa it is setting up an Etsy shop.

The decisions and work is more than I expected. I am niave!

Dont get me wrong, Etsy makes it all very clear and has lots of info. It just takes time.

Mr M has been beavering away making his key balls as well as answering my million questions.

He has just started making these mini key balls.  Perfect for putting in a bowl.

I like seeing all the different types of keys.

As part of my Etsy research, I have come across lots of great things.
