Okay, so this one is a little much just to be used in your classroom, but wouldn't it just be perfect for your front porch? I just loved it and had to add it to my list.

5. Duck Tape Pumpkins

This decor craft is super easy and wouldn't take much time at all to craft up for your classroom desk or even center tables. I would probably put these around my computer area.

6. Classroom Mummy Door Decor

I can't help myself on this one. It looks like it would be super simple to do. Grab some white bulletin board paper and get to cutting.

A Beautiful Mess

Tuesday, September 22, 2015

So I've been getting crafty on myself and creating fonts that I just absolutely adore! I'm considering this a beautiful mess since my life while creating these was a beautiful mess with a newborn and a four year old. I didn't realize for, well, my entire life that I was able to create fonts that actually look great when put on paper! So I worked to get the fonts I've created so far into a Free download at my TpT store. Yes, that's right! A free download for you to use for your personal crafts!! I hope you love them! Just click on the image below! Please feel free to leave some comments!! Thanks!

TpT Tips: Increasing Sales

Saturday, September 12, 2015

Wow!! It's been a long, long time! So how did everyone's summer go? Hopefully, it went very well! I spent mine creating a handful of new products and a lot of bundles, bundles, bundles! And I also welcomed a little Bundle of joy this summer, my first baby girl, EmmaKate. I know, such an adorable, southern name. I just love it.

So, back to the tips. I can tell you I've really improved my sales since creating bundles for some of my most popular items. Create bundles and create lot's of them! Buyers, especially teachers, love, love, love things on sale! I know I do! Here's two examples of my cover pages for my bundles! They were so fun to make! I just love to create things that are popping!


One last random tip I would like to give is this. I had a few buyers ask for particular things, such as a poster here or a poster there and I started to realize I was doing a lot of extra work for free. Well, I decided it was worth it to create listings for custom orders so I did and it is going so much better! Click the image below to see my listing!

I hope all of this helps!!!! Good luck with your TpT store!!!

Grow your TpT with Store Improvements

Tuesday, June 16, 2015

So you've had your TpT store for several years now and this summer you just don't feel the ideas flowing for new product lines. That's okay. Don't panic until next summer, at least. This summer, simply focus on your marketing strategies and how presentable your store looks.

SELLER TIP #1: Making your store attractive

So, first off, you want your store to be eye catching because when a buyer lands on your page, you want them to look at your products and mosey around for a bit. This will likely lead to a sell. I started with my banner. I'm a chalkboard kind of girl with pinks and teals, just basically anything girly. This banner is just perfect for my store and it goes along with my blogger theme (we'll talk blogger in a few). The next things I did were to make sure that the products I placed at the top as featured were attractive and had either good ratings or none at all if they were new. A lot of my products featured in my store at the moment are new so they don't have ratings and that's okay! This is a picture of my banner I created. It's just me. Make sure the banner you create fits your style and not someone else's.


The next things I have been working on this summer are making over some of my cover pages. I have joined the TpT {seller} Makeover challenge and it really got me hopping. I took a minute to look through my store and found some products that just weren't pretty and gave them a makeover! As you can see, I got a little carried away. I've also made over a few more, but I couldn't help myself.


Last, but not least your store categories. Make sure they are organized and easy to follow. I cleared some of mine out, rearranged some products and deleted a few categories that had absolutely nothing in them. To modify these, you need to hover over "My TpT" and click on "Product Listings". This will allow you to see your categories on the left with a "MANAGE YOUR CATEGORIES" link. Easy as pie. 

I hope these tips will help you in making your store more attractive!

Have a great day!
