Men's Gifts

As I was trying to come up with a blog topic for today, my friend mentioned that is time to start looking for holiday gifts. She recommended I make some suggestions for those hardest to shop for---the men in our lives!

Here are a few of my "handmade" favorites for men from Etsy!

What's your grade?

Want to find out how well your Etsy shop measures up? Etsy teamed up with Tailored to give shop owners a chance to make their shop as relevant as possible. It breaks down your shop in to categories and it lets you know what grade that section is at and how to fix it. Give it a try.

My Pinterest Adventure

Want to know how to spend lots of time on your computer and get absolutely nothing done?  It's a site called Pinterest.  :) 

I have had an account for a while now but hadn't really gotten into it until recently.  Wow!  What a place.  For people who craft such as our members it is a wonderland of ideas and beautiful things.  It is also another way to advertise your wares.  You just create a board called My Etsy Shop or whatever you would like to name it and pin your items.  Here's my board:

As I have enjoyed (wasted) my time there, I came across an article that I repinned from one of our own leaders, Ewa.  It is ways to use Pinterest politely.  I have included the link to the wonderful blog where this important information is included. 

If you get a chance to get addicted like I have, feel free to follow any of my boards.  As you can see I am obsessed with finding an easy dinner, any sort of craft, and ways to do my hair easily.  Have fun and play by the rules!  :)
