If you are anything like me, time flies! I swear that each time I look at a calendar, I find myself saying, “I can’t believe (insert a month) is already here!” This led me to create a chart detailing when you should list what holiday products for sale.
My downloadable chart breaks down major holidays, seasons, and events throughout the year and makes suggestions for when you should start listing items, and which items you should either pack up for next year or place on sale or clearance – depending on your preferences.
Tip: Watch the Big Box Retailers
Don’t forget to be observant when you are out shopping. Watching when chain stores stock certain items will help you determine when you should list your holiday or seasonal items.

Remember, this chart is just a guideline: Some sellers (particularly those on Etsy or those with their own websites) will move all of their out of season products to a category called ‘Holiday’ and leave them up year round. And, be sure to plan to leave yourself enough time to create the items before you begin listing them.

Christine - This was super helpful! You should make one with sports - I get sooo lost on what sport starts when and when to push it and searching "Sports calendar" just brings me to the latest game of ball throw. :P
