ČEZ VIKEND JE ARTIŠ

Saj vem, da sem povsem zanemarila Frišno.....ampak še tale vikend dam čez, 
potem bom pa zamenjala naslovko na blogu, 
pripopala gor sto novih knofov,
opustila pisanje v angleščini (because I suck), 
poročala kaj je novega s taščo, kakšne ocene ima pamži pri matematiki, kako se babi znajde v domu za ostarele,
shujšala za 20 kg
in 
postala boljša oseba.


Bi me pa veselilo, če me pridete pogledat čez vikend na Artish:
 v dopoldanskem času bom vice pokala, afne guncala in vse povprek flirtala,
popoldne se kanim pa v predverju s poticami basat in pirhe jest

 ...upam, da pride tudi Kaja na Artish.

Pa da bo potico spekla.

MY PLATE IS FEATURED ON BABBLE!



I just heard  that one of my plates is featured on Babble.

I know. I need a deep breath, too.

...You see, the miracle goes like that:
 one lovely Mrs.Briscoe who is not my friend and is not related to me, did not went to school with my godmother
 and whom I did not beg nor plead nor offer to clean an apartment for a month,  picked my plate and  featured it on a site that has half a million likes on Facebook (and as of today, me as their biggest fan)

I am sure  that she found it thanks to my genius tagging system on Etsy. You know, the one I wrote about last time, the one I am now seriously thinking of patenting ;  
 where you put tags " Christian Bale Shirtless" under every article.

Because I am sure, that when your boss is looking the other way and you feel like taking break from facebook, that you do not go on Etsy and that you do not search for "hand drawn fat ladies on dessert plates", but you do like I do... You type "Christian Bale" in search.
And than you add "shirt".
and after a sneaky look if husband is around somewhere,
you add "less".
if I put all the tagging-ChristianBale-jokes apart.... Did I cry just a little when I saw my plate on Bubble? No I didn't. 
I hollered .



Fat Lady on Etsy

 Next time I get that loud, I expect it to be when my girls get their diplomas.

Or when Christian Bale replaces our postman and starts the trend of topless  letter delivery.

HOW TO GET 100 SALES ON ETSY IN A MONTH

It should be really easy. First we will look at the tagging system and key worlds.
Lets take for example this cup with kind, old lady painted on it :


https://www.etsy.com/listing/121498874/coffee-cup-queen-with-hand-painted-funny


For the last two days nobody showed any interest in her, despite her saying: "Your knowledge of Kung-fu is pathetic" and her being the grandmother of Prince William.

https://www.etsy.com/listing/121498874/coffee-cup-queen-with-hand-painted-funny
 The problem must be in its tags.
Tags are things that you use, when you search for something in Etsy. Like "cup" or "mug"  or even "coffee cup"
and since nobody searches for coffee cups,

I am cleverly changing the tags to "grandmother", "prince William", "grandmother of William",  "Prince William Cute", "not mother in law", "Lucky Kate" and "prince Williams panties". After that I am adding the following tags  for a global appeal:
 "Twilight", "50shades of Gray" and "Christian Bale" (what? You are not checking every search machine on the Internet for Christian Bale tags? Bizarre. I know I do)

By tomorrow I expect to have her on the etsy cover and to begin my life as seriously important and filthy rich artist.

But just in case, should my new tagging system not work as good as expected, fill free to go to my pinterest account   and repin her at your will.

JUST LET ME BRAG FOR A SECOND


my shop is full , or at least the fullest ever AND I just learned how to paste photos directly from my Etsy shop, to my blog, which I consider a verrry neat trick.

AND while I am bragging: if you would you like to read some kind things about me, do check the lovely post that miss Pepermint wrote about us...and have yourself a very lazy sunday evening. I know I plan mine to be that way.

PROGRESS!

...And than you read first three pages of your camera's manual...you take some decent photos and and you start to feel like Annie Leibovitz
Or maybie rather like Annies left hand, or right shoulder or knee cup or something. Don't want to get too cocky.
