I purchase them by the 1,000pc package through a wholesale supplier.

The parts do move ( sometimes a lot ), I don't use any kind of adhesive to keep the parts from moving so it's important that they are placed on a flat level surface that I won't bump or disturb by accident. At 8:50 as an example, you can see I'm making some adjustments to the pieces after adding the resin to them. While it is very time consuming to individually place and manage each part like that, the finished look and quality I feel speaks for itself. :)

Ah. I do not, I want a pressure pot though for sure. Just patience and a warm metal chopstick :)

Lots of practice and I avoid wood to mix with ( toothpicks, popsicle sticks, skewers ) because I do find that it creates bubbles. I actually use a warm metal chopstick and clean it thoroughly afterward.

I use a two part jewelers grade resin, no pressure pot. But it is on my list of equipment I'd like to have. :)

If you're not going to run them for an extended period of time then they aren't going to be of any use to you. That isn't how promoted listings work. It is not a quick fix, and it is not something you can constantly start and stop and hope to get results from it. Have an entire series of videos on here that can help you make some better informed decisions about what might suit you best. I suggest checking those out. I'm also working on an updated video since the website has changed quite a bit since the last time I posted one.

i was thinking something like from now till the end of January. I've been doing my best to use up those 50 free listings from ETSY, I've never had this much stuff in my shop, but I'v also never had so little traffic. Even when i had a hand full of items i used to get 20-50 views, now i got over 60 items and i can hardly break 5 views. I feel like my shop's been buried and i can't figure out what shovel is gonna work to get it out.

I do :) all of them are lovingly handmade! etsy.me/1c95wLz

Hey Suzan! The promoted listings panel shouldn't have changed unless you opted into Google Ads. I've been so swamped with the holidays I haven't had a chance to put together a video about navigating the new dashboard if you opted in ( which I did ). It's on my list of things to do I promise! I do have a thread I started about Google's Ads here: www.etsy.com/teams/7722/discussions/discuss/18113707/page/1

The is some great info in this video. However, there are a few tips that take a pretty long time to be implemented (like SEO), so while you implement those things you can always spend a few bucks on some traffic. There are plenty of cheap services who can provide some interested buyers for your shop. I tried a few and there is one which worked very good for me (it's called Boostical, you can google it and form your own opinion on it). I have spent $19 and made sales over $150. That's how it worked for me and I'm very satisfied. Have a great day!
