Etsy recently released a new version of their Treasury feature called Treasury East. Unlike the current Treasury, with Treasury East you can create as many as you like, and they have no expiration date. They can be viewed anytime, and you don’t have to concern yourself with whether or not there are currently 333 (really) Treasuries currently listed. Treasury East is currently in beta and what the future Treasury will look like (hopefully soon). Exactly what is a Treasury, you ask? It’s basically a member-curated shopping gallery. They’re a lot of fun to browse through, especially if you don’t know quite what you’re looking for on Etsy, and I daresay even more fun to create.
I’ve spent the past few weeks creating Treasuries and I have been amazed at the wonderfully diverse items Etsy has to offer. It is definitely NOT just handmade crafts! The Treasuries so far range from such themes as “The Dark Widow” (shown above) to “Dealing with the Paparazzi.” I have stumbled upon some fantastic vintage finds, like bombshell wiggle dresses and glamorous cat eye sunglasses. And did you know Etsy sellers offer delectable treats and sweets? Blood orange jam? Yes, yes, yes please! We’ve received great feedback so far, and would love to hear from more people. With enough views and positive feedback, one of our Treasuries may even be featured on the coveted Etsy home page. Check them all out here and let us know what you think!
