Yesterday, I noticed I had about 10 new people who "hearted" me on Etsy. That has never happened in one day. I also sold the "Red Poppies" piece. So, I concluded that something must have happened. I must have been on front page or in the treasury. I contacted some of the people who hearted me and none of them could recall exactly what led them to my etsy. Durn! One person said she saw me in the same treasury she was in but I could not find whatever treasury list that was.
I started researching to see if I could do a search to see if I was in the treasury. After doing much looking, searching and research on the Etsy Forums, I have found that the only way you can know if you are on the treasury lists is if while you are checking out the list you see a gold star next to the title of each treasury list. I looked and looked but never saw a gold star. Maybe the list I was on (if I was on one) expired. That is another thing.....I can't ever get on etsy when the treasury lists are not full. I want to create a list! I did manage to create a couple of lists several months ago. So.....what is the secret? What time of morning do you have to get up to be in line to create a list?
I'm thinking if I can ever create a list, I'm going to promote my blog friends. What would be a cute title for that etsy list? Apparently, that is a good way to promote yourself. I sold something and got 10 new hearts in one day. Wow. I did not even think of that. I would like to ask my blog friends to help me figure out how to get a list on the treasury. Then, we need to commit to listing each other on the treasury list. Maybe we could title the list "Me and My Blog Buddies" or something like that? Please comment and join in on this marketing opportunity. I will keep a list of anyone who comments that they are interested in this so that if I ever get a list....I will post something of yours on etsy.

Treasuries help SO much when you are making a name for yourself on etsy!!! Here's a couple links for you if you don't already have them.
Treasury West:

Not as many people look at this...but when I just went to get the link there were 113 people on there! And it's way easier to get a list there:)
