April Merchandising Themes: April Showers

Can you believe it's already April? Well, I definitely can't!!! But, I will say that I am very happy about the spring weather here in the Northern Hemisphere.

Here is my summary of Etsy's April Merchandising themes. Hopefully this will give all of you some great ideas for treasuries during the month. Be sure to tag your treasuries accordingly so that Etsy Admin are more likely to view them!

And, of course, remember to tag your team treasuries "selectperfect" And remember that each team treasury must include at least 6 teammates.

You can read the merchandising themes for yourself here.

Good luck and happy creating :)
