what if your number of Etsy shop sales was translated into a year?
we've all been there. at 0. year 0.
waiting waiting for that 1st sale.
and then yay! it happens. and it's 1.
and hopefully it builds and builds and eventually we get to numbers we at one time only dreamt of. ah, life's like that, isn't it!
ten. one hundred. etc.
well that's the happy case for me.
my sales are about to cross over with my own living years. funny!
yesterday i reached 1969 sales.
and i thought to myself... .1969 - i love that number...
what a great year!
so i asked around to some other lovely handmade sellers ... what does your sales #, translated into a calendar year, bring to mind!
for example:
rikrak:
1969:
what a great a groovy year!
john lennon records *give peace a chance* in the montreal bed-in.
the first human lands on the moon.
the brady bunch premieres.

& woodstock shook the world.
so here's what some other fabulous sellers had to say about their sales/year! reflections from the past, or predictions into the future! (we can all dream to be there, can't we?!)

in the year 56
"56 sales. Like in 56 A.D. only good things are to come for my little shop!
In 56 A.D, gems adorned chalices and crowns. Now, they adorn ears, wrists, and necks. 1,953 years ago, precious sparkle was coveted and adored, and this remains today. Beauty never goes out of style. Natural creation remains coveted."
so true, emms! so true!

in 717:
"in the year 717 A.D. there wasn't a whole lot of documented fun or recreation goin on. ... when i think of the year 717 i think of my 6th grade history teacher. she was the greatest and actually made all of this stuff interesting. so that's my random take on this year, a year i can assuredly say i would stick out like a sore thumb in!"
and what a wonderfully fun addition you'd be, nicey!

2007:
"the iPhone, Windows Vista, Virginia Tech, last Harry Potter book. Also the year my little boy was born, I traveled to Alaska and I discovered Etsy :)"
wow! what a year! {and yay finding etsy in '07 - me too!}
and now predictions into the future...
oktak:
in the year 2472
" I can't even imagine what the world would be like then... (but) hopefully, the survival of the whole planet would have trumped national, ethnic, tribal or religious interests, and we'd have learned to live together more peacefully, if not completely conflict-free.
AND ... we'll all be living like "The Jetsons"!!
oh the jetsons! wonderful!
lillyella
in 3753
"I can hardly imagine what life will be like 100 years from now let alone 2000! No one will have pinky fingers or an appendix, because they are just useless.... Hopefully we will be growing new body parts and organs for every one who needs them and cancer will be as easy to treat as the common cold."
i hope so too, nicey!
