Hello everyone, and Welcome to PassnItOn! Glad to see you here, and hope you enjoy your visit:)
Well now, just came from etsy forums again. Looks like it started with the Forums, but I thought it was suppose to be mid February that they started with the forums? Anyway, a lot of the forums are being locked. You can view what was said, look for an old post, but no more comments can be made.
So, that then brings up the issues of the Teams that are replacing the forums. First of all, you have to join Teams. You have to apply for them, and be approved for them before you can participate with them. If you have pictures that are not good, or acceptable, a Team Captain can deny you joining the Team. Then, if you go forward, correct what was not acceptable before trying to join a Team, you will then have to contact the Captain to ask them for reapplying. Also, if the Team requests for the Captain to accept the member is another way to gain access I guess.
Wow! Was much simplier when you could go to the forums, and look for the issue you were needing help with. A place where you could openly share, and promote your stores, and if you had a glitch or a bug, you could inquire right away about it. But, now if you have any issues you cannot just openly ask about it. You will have to go through the process of joining a team. But, if you are denied a membership to a Team....where do you go then to have your questions answered? Are they going to start a Team for Bugs and Glitches? If so, what if you were denied a membership to that? Then what?
Sorry, but this sounds very complicating, and very unethical too. This is not a very professional business way to handle a large group of people who make the selling venue what it is. Sorry, but this is really upsetting to hear this, and I am trying to understand it as many other members of Etsy are also trying to adapt, and having problems with it.
So, what do you think? Do you think the Forums being removed was a good thing? Do you feel that having Teams for the forums was the right move? How comfortable are you with selling at Etsy with all the changes happening? Please, feel free to respond to these things everyone. Have to have some where to vent a bit:)
Tomorrow Super Bowl Sunday! Hope ya'll have a great day with family, friends, or watching yourself. Enjoy the day, best of luck to all, and Be Safe!
Just listed this last night at Artfire. 3 separate glass pieces found at different times, and different places were put together to make this adorable candy dish compote. I added the iridescent pink bow for a more feminine touch. Many uses without the lid on it too.
This item is already listed in my store. But, yesterday I went through the store changing wording, titles, etc. When I got to this piece I redid the pictures, and added this angel to the piece too. She is not permanently added to the plate, but will be included with the sale. She just blends with all the colors, don't you think?
Trying not to write one of my lengthy blogs today. But, when you get a chance, it's the weekend, you're home, stop by to visit my PassnItOn Artfire Shop to see what I have listed so far. Working on more pieces....if I could just decide this glass piece with this? This glass piece with that? A 2nd layer of glass and plate? So on, and so on:)
Have a super Weekend everyone, and best of luck to you with all you do. Till the next time.....toodles:)
Good Evening everyone, and Welcome to My Blog PassnItOn!:) Glad to see you here, and happy you stopped by to visit & browse.
Artfire has been under maintenance most of the day with some upgrades done last night, and of course today getting things back into order from all of it too. So, kind of was on hold for a bit doing anything. I did get some pictures taken of a couple of more things I plan on adding to my store that I have completed. So, keep a look out for that too. Also, I did get a chance to change my avatar, and banner in my Artfire store. Check it out, and leave me a comment if you like it better than this banner here on my blog because I am thinking of changing it here too. Nothing fancy, simple, but I sooo love my pastel colors too!:)
Notice on the right side bar I have also added my rapid cart from Artfire. Helps me just in case I forget to add the pictures here for ya'll to see the work being added to my store.
I have some more loose pieces sitting here I have washed, and cleaned, and thinking about. I have some ideas for some more items I know I have stored in my spare room for when I feel like being creative, and venture off to do a few different things than the pedestal stands that I have been doing.
I know with some of the craft shows, and with flea markets the pieces I offer now are like some of them that are also offered with these places for people to see, and purchase. I think they are really neat, and there are soo many possibilities of things that can be done with them too. Giving New Life to Treasures is fun, and I enjoy spending my time working with the items, and putting them together, and thinking of things to do. Hey! It's better than sitting around twiddling my thumbs coming up with ideas of things to occupy my time with, better than thinking about bills, and much better than looking out the window at all this snow & not being able to get anywhere again. At least for tonight...NO travel being advised.
Here is to wishing everyone a super great weekend! Thanks again for visiting with me, and stop to see my store when you can too. Never know, you might find something you like that would be great for your home decor, or given as a gift too:) Take care everyone.
Hello everyone, and Welcome to PassnItOn! Glad to see you here, and thanks so much for stopping by:)
I am just stopping by here myself to show a few pictures to some items I listed with my PassnItOn Store at Artfire. I am enjoying the repurposing, and upcycling of some of the pedestal stands I have been doing. I hope others can also enjoy the Giving of New Life to Treasures being offered, and adore them as I also do.
Well, when you get a chance, stop by
to visit my store, and have a look at some of the yummies shown there.
See those green apples? Those are candles. In fact, I think they are suppose to be floating candles that I have added with this plate as the colors, and everything just came together to make this what it is.
This pedestal stand was fun! This mauve colored dish is something I had sitting for show for a very long time in my home, have attached it to a glass holder, added a simple bow underneath, and have included this white angel with pink flowers. She had a broken hand, but it has been repaired, and she looks good standing in this dish, don't you think?:)
Well everyone, again, thanks so much for visiting me here, and make sure to stop by my store too. Take care, and have a super weekend. Enjoy it, and be safe all!:)
