Pinterest

 

A nice person who I don't know pinned this ring on Pinterest about six weeks ago.  

For some reason it went viral this weekend.  I say "viral"..."viral" for me.  It received over 1500 views in one day, I've sold five rings and have had messages about it.  The actual listing that was pinned was one of my sold orders so, unfortunately, some that don't know how Etsy works would not have known it is still available.  But I sure don't look a gift horse in the mouth so-to-speak.  What a thrill. 


It is interesting that it was pinned initially six weeks ago.  I have no idea what happened or how it took off, but I feel blessed that it did. 

...and all the sewing I was going to do...well, that'll get done at night I guess.

    1. Great idea, Amy, though I think it's much like a lightening strike. It sure can't hurt to get them out there. This reminds me its all about being seen. We just need to be seen, but that's the hard part about online stores.
