Good Morning Sasha,
thanks for your red pen, I am certainly conscious of everything I type now and the way
I type it. Being a perfectionist myself I embrace your help and knowledge for it can only improve
the look of my advertisements, and enhance my reputation.
Have a smashing weekend.
Best regards
Darren

Hello Monikaā¦Thank you, Ditto!
Hi Darren,
Welcome to Folksy. The forum is great here for advice and help.
Your mirrors look ace and really unusual.
Would love to see photos of them in situ on a wall in your listing and have just seen one of your custom mirrors on your facebook page which I think would be great to list on here.
Maybe you could do ones that are just personalised with a name and without a picture? If you havenāt done that already.
Wishing you lots of luck
oooo ones with names would be great which makes me think about events as well like a birthday or wedding etc.
Thanks Darren @darrenbudd. My shop is closed at the moment as Iām moving home tomorrow (if I ever finish the packaging) lol. x
Packaging = Packing. haha. x
Do you work with labels/tags Kelly??!!
Good luck with the move tomorrow. Remember to tag everything!
lol. Thank you! x @sejleather
Good evening Helenā¦hello and thank you for your kind words,everything you have just said with regard
to showing my stuff on here is what I want to do,but as yet I cannot work out how to show stuff
without putting it up for sale.
I have a lot to figure out
Workaholicā¦you wonāt lose anything haha Xxx
Great ideas Eileenā¦Bar Mitzvahās etc,
I havenāt worked out how to showcase stuff and let people know that I make to orderā¦without actually putting an
item for sale???
You guys are very successful as I see from your fab shops @HelenMcCartney @EileensCraftStudio
I value your opinions and advice Xxx
Thank you Xxx
A quick search for āmade to orderā returned 14000 items so it must be possible. Could you not specify in the title and listing that it is made to order and give an approximate timeline (there is an option of having your posting time frame as 3 weeks)? If you have a look at this listing you can see that the maker has specified that larger ring sizes will cost more due to the higher material costs but the headline price takes into account any minor variations in the cost of gold and silver (I pad my own prices to cover that fluctuations of bullion).

Thank you Sasha
Iām just beginning to get my head round how to achieve it Xxx
Thank you
I donāt really do made to order on Folksy but I have noticed when people do it here they put āMade To Orderā in the tilte and again in the first line of their description.
I think Sasha idea of doing a search on folksy for made to order and looking to see how theyāve done it might glean some useful information.
Hi Darren - I do custom pet portraits and just make sure I say it is a commission in the listing and just show examples of my work in the photos. I suppose it is easier to do with pet portraits as it is fairly obvious that it will be a commission although I have had people trying to buy the picture of my dog! I have also put in the description variations on price i.e⦠more than one animal in the picture, more than one portrait commissioned at one time. Iām sure if you just put in the title that it will be a commission and state that the picture is just an example of what you do you should be OK - I would still steer clear of photos that include disney and other characters even if they are only intended as examples of what you can do as it could be viewed that you are suggesting you would be able to provide similar if requested.
Hope this helps
