You're right about crafters gifts. I am a crafter, and my kids always buy me supplies as gifts and I love it.

[@whutsy]

I know, right? I would love craft supplies in a cute gift basket or something like that!

[@fleta416]

Our shop dived when gift mode started. The majority of our items are for book lovers and gift mode doesn't have that as a category. Not that I can find anyway.

[@whutsy]

Thanks for that insight! My shop had a boom for one week after the "gift mode" nose dive, I was feeling really good! Then, plummeted again. Crickets for over a week now. Running a business this way is just not sustainable.

Dead shop since around December here, and I know several others that aee, as well. I have no idea what is up!

[@whutsy]

Glad I'm not the only one! Etsy won't even show my ads 😅😅😅
