CRAFTSU photo-op for Valentine's Day craft gifts
CRAFTSU.com is featuring photos of Valentine's Day gift crafts until Feb. 14. If you would like your Valentines craft images featured during this time, here's what you need to do.
If you have heart-related items already, upload their images and follow the directions below to identify them so I can find them when I 'search' Craftsu. To make sure your images get included, message me and let me know.
If you don't have items suitable for Valentines Day gifts, you have a couple of weeks to think creatively.
Go into your photos (either new or existing) and edit the title, description, and tags area to include one or more of the following phrases.
Note: only images related to Valentine's / hearts / romance / cupid will get featured because I'm doing publicity for the site around this theme and that's what the media and site visitors will expect to find.
Here are the key phrases used by searchers:

last minute valentine gifts
creative ideas for valentine's day gifts

cute valentines ideas for a boyfriend

I just did the keyword research and the phrases above all get lots of searches on Google. These text phrases - exactly as shown here - are some of the most popular ways people are searching online for Valentine's gifts.
Check this out: the highest number of search phrases are related to Valentine's Day gifts for men. I didn't get it until now, but you women probably already knew this. I mentioned my findings to a woman friend and she said that's because men don't spend much time buying gifts, they just give chocolate and/or flowers.
Does this give you some ideas? I hope so. Because this is a way for you to promote yourself without cost if you have craft items appropriate for the occasion, and especially so for men's gifts.
In addition to tagging your photos with the above phrases, you can also include these search terms in discussion forums and blog posts. Those areas also link back to your profile.
And finally, if you want to up your results -- after you've uploaded photos and content which all includes the Valentine's search terms, go to your favorite social network and 'share' your profile page. A quick way to do this is to go to the toolbar stretching across the bottom of any Craftsu page and look for the '+ Share' link. Clicking that will bring up a list of sites like Facebook, Twitter and others you can post links to your profile page from.

Here are perfect Valentines gifts for your mother, daughter,granddaughter, sister, friend or any female that you want to share your love with. These are Love stamps that have traveled around the US sharing their love. Each stamp has been encased in resin and the attached to polymer clay. The bails are silver plated and each stamp is hanging from a combination of ribbon and cord in a color to co ordinate with the colors of the love stamp.

Check out these cute and decorative but functional Valentine's Bowl..Valentines' Day!!!
My fabric bowls are hand crafted from two coordinating pieces of fabric that are fused together with a stiffening material similar to the stiffening material that is used in the brim of a baseball cap. These fabric sandwiches are then cut and sewn into different shapes. Colorful and fun, they make the perfect centerpiece or decorative accent. They can hold chips, crackers, fruit, bread, keys or even your favorite potpourri. You are only limited by your imagination. Makes a great gift idea!
These Valentine fabrics are great to give to your favorite Valentine, with or without the candy or jewelry.
They are available at www.ldcreations1950.etsy.com - Attachments:

I have the perfect item for all girls of all ages, a pair of beaded socks. The picture is for a purple and crystal pair. If you would like a all red beaded pair or a combination, let me know. I am showing the purple and crystal because I have had people buy those since instead of red ones. Don't understand it but I will make any color that a person wants.
I have these listed on ebay and etsy at the Beaded Sock Lady. - Attachments:

Hi Joyce, sorry the Valentine's gift post was from last year and is going to be deleted to prevent confusion.

Hi Norma, the Valentine's Day feature was from last year. We'll be closing this post to avoid confusion about the dates.
