I know Halloween is not even here yet, but it's time to be thinking about getting your online selling venues ready for Christmas. International shoppers and early shoppers will start buying the first part of November. Here are a few things I do which may or may not work for you: The most important for me is to have a good range of price points - $15 and up Have some pieces that are easy to duplicate. Have some stocking stuffers - key chains, purse charms, bookmarks, etc. (I need to do this.) If you can, offer sizing options for necklaces and bracelets. On Etsy, there is a variations drop down menu that makes it easy. Not everyone will want to email you to ask a different length. If the option is available, all they have to do is select the length they want and check out. Consider adding short lengths for girls, if you have anything appropriate for them. During Christmas, I use silver boxes and Christmas ribbon so no additional wrapping is needed. I also include a blank gift tag. Please feel free to add any other suggestions.

Great information, Michele. Thank you! I need to list more lower priced items such as earrings. I haven't made key chains or such before, but will look into those and other lower price point items I could offer. Your Christmas wrapping is a wonderful way to make things easy for customers too! Dawn
