Do you love house rabbits?

Do bunnies rule your family?


If you have bunnies as part of your family and would like to get some cute house rabbit related tees, you should check out my wife's shop on Etsy.  In addition to running my own shop, I am also the screen printing golem for my wife's items,  which can be found at http://laseraphincreations.Etsy.com. This shop is strictly hers, and the proceeds are hers to do with as she pleases.

Here are some examples of her tees

With more coming all of the time.

Custom hand screened QR code tee shirts

https://www.etsy.com/listing/110845581/custom-hand-screened-qr-code-tee-shirts

You get the QR code and one line of text, printed on either the front or the back of the shirt. 
Only $22.00 for a completely customized shirt.


 
You can request custom shirt colors.



  • Run a sociological experiment to see how many people will actually scan your shirt.
  • Be your own business card.
  • Advertise your web site.
  • Wear your phone number or email address at the club.
  • Speak your mind freely but discretely.
  • Wear your biography (up to about 3,000 alpha-numeric characters) on your chest. Note; however, that older phones won't be able to read something that large, so you might want to do some editing of your life story down to around 300 characters :D.
  • Say something; be it clever, pithy, groundbreaking or just plain insane.... Whatever you want.

Are you worried about censorship or offending my delicate sensibilities? Don't be; short of inciting people to physical violence, and within the range of what my QR code generator will accept (i.e., words with accented characters might not work), I'm pretty open to anything.



The shirts are hand-screened. You can request that the code be printed on either the front or the back of the shirt. One line of text (60 characters maximum) is included (if desired) and can be used as you like. Print your business name perhaps, or a note that says "SCAN ME!" - whatever you'd like. 


There is no up-charge for shirts larger than XL or for tees/baby dolls for females. 

Use the "Notes to seller box to request:
  • Size and type (male/female) of they're not otherwise listed.
  • Shirt color not listed (QR code must be black).
  • Whether you want the code printed on the front or the back of the shirt.
  • Text for the plain text line (if you desire one).
  • Text for the QR code. Please ensure that the text is exactly as you want it to appear. I am not able to guess whether typos or grammatical errors are deliberately included for effect.

The Etsy shop is down for a week, but....

My Etsy shop is down for a week or so. However, the online store is available at http://thewitsend.aliboom.com - items are being transferred there; in addition, there are items there that aren't available on the Etsy shop.

Opening a new online store for our items.

Trying to expand some from Etsy. I'm not getting rid of the Etsy shop, this is just supplementing it, at least for a while.

There will probably be many changes over the course of the next month or so, and items will be put in place slowly, so please be patient.

There are some nice things that I can do, such as offer discounts for bulk orders, so that should be interesting.

Currently, I'm in the process of putting all of the atheism related tees up.

The new shop can be found at http://thewitsend.aliboom.com.

The Etsy shop is still available at https://thewitsend.etsy.com

I sure would like to figure out the pattern.

Running an Etsy shop is interesting. I do screen printed tee shirts and onesies, and I never know, from month to month, how things are going to go.

Take February, for example. It was one of my best months ever, it tied December, which had all of the Christmas sales. Yet that was only through the 24th.

Then take March, which at the moment, is the worst month I've had since the very first month that the shop was open. I had one sale between February 25th and March 8th, when I would normally have  had something in the range of 10-15 (the beginning of the month is when I get the majority of my sales.

I have tweeted one of the shirts and have gotten four sales off of that tweet. Two days ago, I tweeted the same shirt, the tweet got over thirty favorites and was retweeted twenty-six times; to a potential audience of over 165,000 people (yes, I know, the audience is not really anywhere near that big) and not a single sale. I would have been thrilled to get 1/100th of one percent of that audience!

A little while ago, I was doing a brisk business in Atari related shirts. I decided to run a sale, which would have really given people an excellent break on the price. That was a bad move; I have not had a single sale on Atari related shirts in a month and a half now, ever since the day the sale started.

I'm really just curious about how this all works. I love that people like my items, and buy them. However, being on a fixed income, I also look forward to the sales to help me stretch my money through the month. Understanding how it works would help ease my stress.

New sections up in the shop

In order to make it easier to find things as our inventory of designs grow, we have started putting sections up in the shop:

For tees related to atheism, visit View Atheism.
Example from the Atheist section.


For tees related to Atari computers, visit View Atari.
Example from the Atari section.


For tees related to the military (with a liberal bent), visit View Military. There are quite a few new shirts up in this section.


Example from the Military section.
All of the other tees are currently uncategorized.  There are also sections for onesies, tote bags, bumper stickers, etc..

Two new Atheist tee shirt designs are up in the shop.

I've added two new tees to the shop.  They are a variation of an earlier shirt with modified text that should be easier for some people to read.

One version includes the Atheist Symbol and the other includes the Invisible Pink Unicorn symbol.

This shirt is available for $15.99 and can be found at https://www.etsy.com/listing/224184766/atheism-is-myth-understood-with-atheist
This shirt is also available for $15.99 and can be found at https://www.etsy.com/listing/224185096/atheism-is-myth-understood-with-ipu
