Hidden gems - little-known items

We all have them - some items in your shop never seem to get as many views as others. We love them - and if anyone else just got to see them, they would love them too! This is their chance to shine.

[And if you can pass on suggestions for giving them more time in the spotlight - maybe the tags could be improved - or the description is spelled wrong, or the photo is rubbish - I for one would be happy to know!]

Here’s mine…

This little painting of the Docklands in London doesn’t get many views. I painted it from a photograph I took when I was on the cable car over the Thames!

This butterfly keyring has been in my shop quite a while but just doesn’t seem to be loved as much as the other things!

Interesting thread!

For me, it has to be this scarf…it’s so overlooked for some reason. I personally think it’s lovely…nice, tight pattern, warm shade and one of a kind as this yarn is now discontinued.

Fab thread idea.

I always feel this little guy gets over looked!


I’m going to create a ‘hidden gems :gem:’ Pinterest board and pin you all :slight_smile:

Thank you, Sarah! I love all of these items, and can’t spot any reason why they shouldn’t get more views.

Well , I made these last year , and sooooo enjoyed creating them, and I realised the other day when re-listing them that nobody loves them like I do :sob::wink::blush::joy: Can anyone spare a little love !!! …

These are beautiful, Ali,and original. You might try brightening up your images little so they catch the eye as someone browses past? See if you can get the gold to really shine out?

Thank you for your sweet comments Helen . I think I will have to have a go at re-photographing - I’ve always had trouble getting the metallic inks to shine like they should !! :slight_smile:
Your own art work is incredible ! :sparkling_heart:

This first size pink bib with sweet little owls on it, has been in my shop quite a while and doesn’t have one single heart!

Thank you Ali - I’m not one to talk about photos! You might work wonders on your correct images with a little editing, rather than the hassle of taking them again.

I was so pleased with these little horses when I made them but no-one seems to love them as much as I do - lol!

Probably this little ‘Green Britain’ flag wall hanging. I don’t make them any more, but I feel a bit sorry for this last one :cry:

I do like this grey seal card, Roxanne - lucky you to see him!
I wonder whether you hve the best image for this item, though - if I have done a search for ‘seal cards’ and see a lot of smaller images, I might not click on this one to view it as it’s not quite obvious what the picture is, at a small size. So it may get lots of impressions but not so many Views. Just a thought!
