British Sellers on Etsy Treasury Challenge #5

Who can join?

British Sellers on Etsy is a moderated team with the following requirements:

Everyone is welcome to join as long as they are situated in the United Kingdom, are over 18 (Etsy's rules to comment in the teams/forums) , have a minimum of 15 listings ( you wont be able to be an active seller without things to sell :) & agree to be active team members. PLEASE DONT APPLY IF YOU DONT MEET THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS.

Please note: The British Sellers on Etsy team does not work for nor represent the opinions of,Etsy.

Our team tag is 'British Etsy Team' so if you are a member please add this to your listing to enable people to search for team members easily.

Please DONT open new threads for general or individual questions as these threads just get buried under all the 'usual' threads - if in doubt please post it in general questions :)

As a group we are currently going through major member changes as we have many non-active members.

NB If you have previously been a member & recently been removed this is probably because we haven't seen you here much for sometime. A strong, helpful team is built on active members & this is our aim :)

But if your situation has changed & you have a little more time to give your fellow team members (or if you feel you were removed in error) then please DO re-apply stating that you wish to re-join agreeing to be an active team member - this part IS very important as we will not be re-instating members that dont agree to make contributions to the team. Thank you for understanding :)

3. Include this week's Inspiration Item anywhere in the first 2 rows of your treasury.
4. Do not include any of your own items or more than one from the same shop.
5. In addition to the Inspiration item, you must contain at least 4 items from British Sellers or members of this team.
6. While the challenge lasts, be sure to change out any items that disappear from your Treasury. Do NOT replace the Inspiration Item if it sells.
