What is an item or service you are excited to offer for the festive/holiday season? 🎁📦

[tranguyen]

Happy Monday, everyone ✨

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 🎁!

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? 🎁📦

And if you can't choose which one is your favorite, share a crowd-pleaser with us — 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 ❤️

P.S: Need some help with choosing what to offer for the holiday to avoid wastes? Check out @JTPets question on this topic — you may find some great tips and insights ❇️

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!

So cute @Jamiev ! I'm including an image of the glass so others here can see (in case they don't click out to your awesome site)

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.

These are so creative!!! I love them @GoalGetter I also just learned that that method is called Venetian window technology!

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.

Way to go Deb and Steve! These are so beautiful. And how special to be able to run a business with your partner 😊 Congrats! @icarvwood 

P.S. GREAT USERNAME!!!

At Darianna® Bridal & Tuxedo, one of the most popular gifts we sell in November and December is Wedding Gown Preservation Services.  It's a service where a bride can have your wedding dress organically dry cleaned, pressed and placed in a beautiful display box with a handy carrying case.  A second very popular gift purchase during the holidays is a store gift card because about 40% of couples get engaged between Thanksgiving and Valentine's Day.  Mom and grandmom often purchase the bride a gift card to put towards her wedding dress purchase.

Wishing all Square Sellers a successful holiday selling season!

Our biggest seller last year was our Large size Book Sleeves! While we offer many sizes last year that was our best seller size. This year it's been paperback size (Medium). We are now offering an XL which accommodates chuckier books. We offer a variety of prints mostly universal, here's al ink to our latest!  (I coulsn't upload a photo😣)  Manga Booksleeve

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.

This would make for such a thoughtful gift! Very beautiful @CoraliesCrafts1

Every year during the holidays and seasons, we have seasonal jewelry, but it always sells out so quick. In order to keep up with demand we have to sell at lest 15 at a time.

[tranguyen]

That's great to hear @coolkids! Can people order these online, or is there an Instagram or website for folks to check out what the jewelry look like?

I know it sounds cheesy, but I am excited to offer a smile. We sell seasonings (as seen in the pictures) and have had a great first year back full-time. While I am of course looking to sell more, we pride ourselves on our saying "Free smells & smiles". Especially around the holidays, it can sometimes be a happy time and sad for others. We hope we can offer a nice smile to make someone's day better this holiday season. 🙂

I love your values, Josh! What a great way to conduct your business. We need more of this! Congrats on a solid year back at full time @schaefferjosh

[Freakybuttrue]

Mmmm, I can almost taste it!

We just rolled out these 2025 Dumpster Fire Calendars! 2024's sold out fast, so we're hoping for more of the same!

OMG, I completely understand why this sold out so quickly, this is brilliant @Freakybuttrue! Crossing fingers that this one will sell like hot cakes too. 

[Hailey]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 NICE!

I have a tiny shop in Bracken, TX called, Firelight Finds. It's a plant, gift and vintage decor shop.  I'm going on year two and last holiday season customers loved the candle lines we sell like Santa's Naturals, Fraser Fir.  We had to place two extra orders.  They also love the Woodfire Candle Company line we sell.  Amazing American made products. 

[tranguyen]

That sounds so lovely @FirelightFinds! Are the candles available online too? If so, feel free to share a link so folks in the Community can browse them too!
