Category: Elegant Whimsy
August 7, 2008
I get a few questions once in awhile concerning the Shop Category menu on the application. My idea with the shop categories is to give LolliShops a special way to search for shops & items.
When we set up our shops, we will choose a category that best describes what we sell (you can pick something other than what you chose on your application if you changed your mind). However, each item you list will have a category for you to choose also! So even if you chose Elegant Whimsy for your whole shop, you can still choose Romantic Inspirations for one of your creations.
Pretty nifty.
Here are some examples of creations that fall under the Elegant Whimsy category:

I can’t wait for you shop to open! I don’t sell; I love handmade items and can’t wait to find new artists on your site to buy from. Great idea!

Sadie!
Where have I been? I just found about this. You have been so very, very busy!! I’m excited about the new adventure. And I know it will be a great success.
I’m in love with both category titles, Elegant Whimsy AND Romantic Inspirations. But there are more. LOL

It’s really helpful to see items associated with each category. I had trouble with this and am glad that each item can be in a different categor.

I look every day to see a new post here. It’s wonderful how you are keeping us all up to date. Here’s a question you might answer in one of your posts. Will there be a search engine, and will we be able to tag our items for searches? Sadie, you really have something great going here.
Hugs,

Oh, how exciting! This is a wonderful idea, Sadie Lou! I just found out about it last night. I can’t wait to start making more of my creations and apply to see if I qualify… I’ve been on the fence for months about whether I want to use my own website to set up shop or use just use Etsy exclusively – so many decisions! It’s wonderful to have more options!
