    Wow. I don't think I could do that. Dips has just helped me open my own etsy shop and I don't think I would have been able to do it without her.

        I hadn't heard of Etsy until a few weeks ago, it's a good site! I like the work you've produced Dips. :dbgrtmb:

            I did a search for a wooden snail on Etsy and I have noticed that the seller has put a tonne of "tag words" at the bottom, where it says "related to this item". That could be a good idea, even if the tags are very similar one to the other...because you never know what word the buyers use to conduct their search.
            And then of course ideally one should put the story of his life in the profile etc ( which I personally I am not keen on, but I do realize that it increases the buyer trust towards the seller).

                I have seen your snail, Jane: that is why I searched for the word "snail" on Etsy. (It is actually so cute that I have put the link on my Facebook)

                  That really has made my day. I've have had a really crappy two days creatively (my work was outdone by someone less able to cut the long story short) and this has made me smile..

                  Thank you

                            They are lovely Dips. :) I think we always find fault with our own work.
