Directory Listings and Bling!

Posted: 16 Feb 2011 05:13 PM PST

Have you had a chance yet to visit the Everything Etsy Directory?

If not, what are you waiting for?? There’s something for everyone!

We’ve gotten (pretty close to) caught up on listings and there are hundreds of shops and suppliers in close to fifty categories.

These Sellers Care!

The sellers listed in the directory include some of the most professional Etsy Sellers and suppliers we know.  Just taking the time to create a listing is a sign that these sellers care about what they do and that they’re eager to do business with you.

Each listing contains a few short lines about the shop.  These words are written by the shop owners so you can quickly get to know a bit about them.

47 Suppliers

This directory started out as an idea for a supplier directory.  At last count, there are 47 suppliers who love Etsy sellers.  These suppliers know what you make and they want to help you make it.  It’s great to work with suppliers that understand what we need!   Check out the list of suppliers.

I know this section will be growing fast, so keep checking back for new ones you might have missed.

Add Your Listing

Add your listing today!  It’s totally free for a standard listing which includes a link to your Etsy shop or supplier website.  If you decide to go for the enhanced listing, you’ll get quite a few fun perks, some of which are already working, and some very exciting ones that are in the works right now. Enhanced listings look awesome and  are only $5.00 per month.

Read what Tammy from Fanciestrands said about her enhanced listing, here.  It’s great to have such wonderful feedback so soon!

We’re Advertising

We want to make sure that lots and lots of people who love Etsy know about this directory.  The more people that come to use this as a resource, the better for everyone!  So you’ll soon start seeing ads for the directory popping up here and there around the web.

Spread the News

We really appreciate your links to the directory.   It’s easy for you to share the love on your blog! We’ve created a couple of buttons you can use.  If you’ve already included your listing, you might want to link to it in a blog post.  That will help your listing perform better down the road when the directory starts gaining ground in search engines.






Etsy sellers are always so supportive of each other and it helps handmade products grow in popularity…that’s a good thing!

Thanks for your help with spreading the word about this new directory and making it so successful this fast!

A Scrapbooking Storage Closet

Do you have limited space and scrapbooking supplies taking over your house?

Maybe you could turn a spare closet into something like this one. Having everything so neat and organized will make scrapbooking even more fun. Here are a few of my favorite features, and they’re all so easy to do on your own.

Using pegboard can really make the most out a space that’s usually forgotten. Adjustable shelves make things so much easier when you want to change it around a bit later on.

Put every inch of the closet to good use with cork trivets from a kitchen and bath store. They make a fun llittle bulletin board that’s perfect for inspiring ideas. Trivets are thick and can easily be mounted with foam tape.

Hanging folders are a great use of space. Organizing paper by season or color can make it easy to see what you have before you run off to the store to buy more. Hey, this is a money saving idea here! Now you can explain to your husband how this closet will save money and he should help you do it this weekend! :-)

Have fun!
