This video came up on my feed and I'm so glad it did! You're so charming :) I'm your 200th subscriber! I'm an illustrator/mixed crafted artist and I've been thinking about opening up online shop again. I used to sell on Etsy before with my ex partner (pinback buttons and keychains mostly). But let me tell ya, it's so disheartening to see the platform overrun by dropshippers and suspicious accounts :( I miss the old Etsy days very much. I do really like the working by "drops"! I'm the same with commissions. Commissions are a ton of stress for me! lol Thank you for sharing! Wishing you the best :) PS: You look a bit like Heather Morris! haha
Yoga for crafters sounds fantastic! Especially something to stretch out our backs after sitting like a prawn for too long haha! Good luck with your plans for the future
I really enjoy your videos, Sarah :) thank you for making them. I am not a small business owner (I crochet as a hobby) but I find your videos very informative and entertaining ❤
I have 10+ years on Etsy and I find if I don't change with the times / change with the trends / create different items if the best selling item is no longer selling the best, then my shop will take a downward spiral. If you find it is no longer fun and enjoyable by all means do not close the shop - just deactivate your items. It doesn't cost any fees to have an empty Etsy shop.

You're evolving! I think that's cool! And, good for you!

Crafter yoga 🧘🏽 👍🏼
Good choice Etsy is now garbage for small business. Closed mine a year ago have not looked back, do it ❤👍
