Well, 4ofakind submitted a request for 11 hairbows for her granddaughter's softball team. I submitted by bid, bit my nails, and patiently waited.... and, later that day, 4ofakind picked my bid out of 17 bids total! I had won over 4ofakid! I had landed my first Alchemy sale! I was so excited (as if you couldn't tell!)
I immediately started looking for the right colors of ribbon and coordinating payment and barrettes with 4ofakind. Even though I had to order one of the ribbon colors from online, I was still able to finish the bows in record time and ship them out this morning. 4ofakind should get them early next week and I can't wait! I really hope that she loves them as much as I do!
So, I now think that Alchemy is even more wonderful than I did before. Your completed bid/ sale from Alchemy shows in your sold items and the description of your bid is the listing itself.
When bidding for an Alchemy request, you have to be very thorough. As you can see, I tried to cover all of the basics. What you don't see are the terms and conditions which only the buyer and seller sees. In the terms and conditions, I described what I required for payment and when. When I would be able to ship and any other important notes that could affect the outcome of the bows.
As you work your order, Alchemy allows and asks you to upload pictures of your progress. The pictures in this blog article have two of the last pictures I uploaded to my completed Alchemy sale. In the first one you can see the 11 finished bows. In the second and third pictures, you can see the stack of the bow which is approximately 2 inches and the bow tails which are approximately 7 inches.
This order was a lot of fun for me. It provided great experience and great exposure. I think that Alchemy and 4ofakind's granddaughter's softball team rocks! Thank you 4ofakind for this opportunity!
