Happy Monday, everyone โจ
It feels very early to start talking about the holiday season but before you know it, the cold will be creeping in and twinkling lights will be up everywhere.
Last year, we got an incredible response from the Community when we asked them to share their favorite item or service they are planning to sell for the season. We got so many replies that we were even able to put together a Community Gift Guide for 2023 ๐!
This year, we are once again asking folks to share:
What is an item or service you are excited to offer for the festive/holiday season? ๐๐ฆ
And if you can't choose which one is your favorite, share a crowd-pleaser with us โ something that is always a hit with customers every festive season!
If you are selling online, don't forget to share a link in your reply too! Can't wait to read everyone's reply โค๏ธ
P.S: Need some help with choosing what to offer for the holiday to avoid wastes? Check out @JTPets question on this topic โ you may find some great tips and insights โ๏ธ
This question is part our Season of Giving celebration. Keep an eye on the Square Community in the coming weeks for more festive season content and the opportunity to be part of an exciting event. More to come!
Last year we went a little bit crazy and purchased a high quality Krampus costume. We had a -photo shoot day and my husband had the BEST time terrorizing everyone. I can't wait til it's cool enough to get him back in his costume.
For our anime customers we'll do the ugly holiday sweaters again since they were such a big hit last year. For the boutique I want to do my Christmas ornaments again and maybe a holiday candle. Still tossing around ideas.
I weave chains, by hand, one ring at a time, using only two pair of pliers! No two are exactly alike. www.designsbyscaryann.com I also have a physical store at: 39 Main Street, Belfast, NY. My physical store is open three days a week. My pictures are probably going to be too big, they usually are. I really need to figure out an easy way to resize them that won't create sooo many versions of the same picture on my computer...
I love the holiday season and two of my favorite books are Happy Halloween and Merry Christmas. With the magic of Venetian window technology, the images move within the book to create a new scene. 
We are a smaller Grandpa and Grandma shop. Steve, the artist, turns and carves functional art from local Virginia wood. I do the vending at the local Staunton Farmers Market, collect the money and do the bookwork. It is a great partnership. One of our most popular pieces, which many clients say is hard to find, is our handcarved left-handed cooking spatulas. It's all in the curve! Check out them, along with all of our other pieces on our online store, The WoodArt Studio: https://the-woodart-studio.square.site/s/shop.
Happy and prosperous season to all.

Deb: Wife of Artist
I love doing personalised towels. Love it even more when customers come back wanting more.
This tractor is just one of many designs I'm adding to my website.
