I realized while in the hospital that I forgot to put a little "on vacation" slowdown message on my Etsy shop ... after a second of "what if I get a sale" panic, I calmed myself down with a reminder that the likelihood of that was very, very, very slim.
Today I decided to check things out on Etsy, looked over my shop, added my vacation announcement for August, and discovered this. A very sweet spotlight of my shop on the EtsyKids Blog. I immediately emailed Stacey at Daisy Designs, the gal who wrote it, thanking her and apologizing for just noticing the write up. Explaining that Anna had come just a few days before. She replied with this message "It was a really easy choice on who to spotlight. :) I have always admired how you welcome shops to the EtsyKids forum."
I'm not a huge presence on EtsyKids, I guess you could say I'm pretty low profile, and on many occasions I've felt like no one knows who I am ... I promote and promote and promote others, and I would periodically look through the forums and welcome new shops (especially those without any comments yet), but because the group is so huge, I have asked myself many times if it was worth the time and effort. Anyway, it was sweet to know that this isn't entirely true. And the exposure is defiantly nice to have!! She also asked for our address so she could send Anna a little gift. What an incredibly sweet and generous offer. She has a three year old girl, I'm thinking I'll need to return the favor with a cute girlie pillowcase.
