I don't know whether it is the recent change in Etsy's status, or the relevancy search but so much is new at Etsy since last year and the lights appear to have gone out! I am going to stick with it anyway, and try and find out how to get my shop moving with the times!
However, I have opened a second SoapyChica over at Zibbet, as there is a lot more going on over there now for the genuine handmade crafter and the community as a whole seems to be very pleasant.
I should be receiving my new gift packaging in the next day or so, so there will be a few photos to show the new soaps in their gift wrap by the end of the week.
