I would love to see you make a video on how to start an Etsy business especially explaining how the shipping process works. I created an Etsy shop but I’m clueless on the shipping process.
I have Pirate Ship like Diane below, its AMAZING. I spent $13 regular mail to send across town, with Pirate Ship i sent the same thing across town again and it was $5. I dont have an Etsy account so i can't help with that part
@bruderd1962 Thank you, awesome tips! I made a shop and wondered the same thing. Another question if u don't mind. Is there any way to upload items and pricing in bulk. For example, I listed 14 items that took me 2 hours because I had to type in each size and the cost of every size. Also, short sleeves and long sleeves. There has to be a better way. Thanks!
Yes I would love to see you set up an Etsy shop. I always pick up tips and tricks and ideas from other people that I did not know or do. This will help a lot of people learn some things. I just love this video. I seem to always learn things that I did not know or realize until I see someone else do it.
Hi Shelley! Anything on our site that is purchased includes the commercial license so you are covered to sell any physical item you create that features one of the purchased designs. Hats, shirts, totes, signs, mugs... whatever it is that you create! Mockups are used to show what the completed project could look like without having to actually create the product. If you have any specific questions, feel free to post them in our Facebook group: facebook.com/groups/1930716583871665 - Dawn 🙂
Please do an Etsy video!!! I’m so curious. I just bought a Cricut and I’m so excited to learn what I can do with it and how I can put my projects on etsy
I had to say I watch other videos on here, but honestly, you are the reason I purchased a membership with design bundles. You are awesome, down to earth, and truly make me feel you want to help us. Your lessons are so clear and precise. Keep it up because i love your videos! Maybe you can make them more often lol I love learning these crafts from you. Thank you! 😊 On the car decal to sell, how do you make it where all they have to do is peel it off as one image?
We would just use transfer tape and sell the decal on the backing with transfer tape attached. Thank you so much for your sweet words I have just sent them over to Crystal I am sure they will make her day! - Agata
This is probably my favorite video of yours - so informative! You chose the best projects to show us as well. I've been making and selling the libbey glasses and tshirts - they're super popular. Yes please show us how to set up & maintain an Etsy account - all the things.
Really enjoyed this video . I’m actually just starting my small business for specialized, and customized tumblers, keychains, luggage tags and other small items. So this was good information. Thank you
Excellent video. You always do a great job explaining and demonstrating. I would definitely love to see more videos on setting up and maintaining an Etsy shop.
Love this video!! Please produce a video showing the whole Etsy process!! I would appreciate it cause I’m totally lost when it comes to starting on Etsy.
It was fun watching your video. You asked you I'd jam to in the car... TYKETTO!!! ❤❤ Other bands: FIREHOUSE, LILLIAN AXE, TREAT... 🎉 Not selling on etsy, but I do sell stuff. 😊
Crystal you are seriously a wonderful tutorial Prof! I have yet to see a video that you have presented that is less than great❤️ Catching up on the older ones, love them all! I would love to see an Etsy shop tutorial! I just broke my ankle and it looks like my summer has gone to hell so I may as well try to make it profitable lol😹 Hugs
This means so much thank you so much 😊... I pray you have a speedy recovery I will work on and Etsy shop tutorial and I hope you still have a fantastic summer - CrystalAnn
Waooo!!! I just came across your videos and I’m totally addicted! I would love to start with the decal’s business for beginners. Where should I begin?. Thank you Crystal! Blessings
Yes, love this video. Lots of good info I will go back and watch over and over. These are all things I would like to offer in an Etsy shop, so more videos like this and ones on Etsy would be great. How much would you sell a car decal for? How about the sticker sheet? Or would you just suggest seeing prices of similar products? So many questions! :)
Love your video… I would like start a t-shirt business but having trouble finding vendors. I’m looking to pay wholesale prices… If you could point me in the right direction I would very much appreciate it… Just watching your video I’ve learned so much and excited to get going… Thanks for all you do!!! 😊
I would like to see a video on how to start an Etsy business from start to finish. Everything that you mentioned in the video, THAT is what I would like to know about!!
yes all of above,, and etsy for sure, my daughter is uploading for etsy but OMG it takes 1/2 hr to set up a new style and not to mention taking the pics, and im a photographer with a studio, so its supposed to be easy.... NOT!!
Hi Tracie! Starting an Etsy shop is very user friendly and their support is usually easy to work with. We have lots of great tutorials for selling decals, shirts, tumblers... whatever you decide to sell we can help! - Dawn 🙂
Yes Please! I’d love to see you do a video on setting up an Etsy shop. I’ve watched their videos and I kinda get it, but not completely. I’m getting stuck on terminology a lot. They assume you already know what things mean but I’m a beginner so…I don’t. Help with shipping, the $35 thing and their labels would be super helpful. How do you know what to charge or shipping, or up price to accommodate the cost of free shipping. Do I need any special paper, printer, scale for the labels. I’m thinking sticker paper, regular printer and a kitchen scale. There’s more that I don’t completely understand but the shipping is most boggling. Thank you!
Hi there! Etsy will automatically suggest shipping based on the weight of the package. All of the shipping details are set by you in the listing of the item you are looking to sell. - Dawn
I would love to learn how to start an etsy business. I would like to do stickers, decals and tshirts. I was wondering how to figure out what designs/sayings to sell, what will sell? Thanks so much!! I love your site.
Hey Cherie! Our suggestion would be to spend some time scrolling through Etsy and compare what you are confident making and how it sells. Check out pricing, the listing photos, and store reviews as well! - Dawn
I have a question, what kind of contact paper do you use for the car decals? What types of instructions would you recommend we include with those decals? Also, the type of vinyl..is it permanent OR like window cling or something else?
Hi Sheketa! It's from Amazon! Unfortunately, I don't see that specific one available but you can search for crochet tape measure animal and lots of options come up! - Dawn
I noticed I have the same Cricut paper cutter as I do. Why does yours have a long ruler along the top? Where did you get that? I don’t have that on mine, and I even went back on the shopping site and it doesn’t have that top ruler, just the ruler where the razor goes up and down.
I like the Libby glasses and a surprise to me are the stickers. I would like to see some recommendations for packaging for things like the decals and stickers. Great video! Thank you
About the car decals: do you put adhesive on OUTSIDE of the window or INSIDE? I would think inside, but if you do that, shouldn’t the design be mirrored? Great info. Love your presentation.
Oh no! Thank you for the feedback. We're always looking to improve so we take anything and everything the viewers say into consideration when we plan our next videos - Dawn
Thank you for sharing this information! I would like to start an Etsy business, but with the fees is it worth it if you’re selling small dollar items? I ❤️ your stickers! So stinkin cute!!!
I used to sell sublimation t-shirts back in the 80’s when sublimation was fairly new. I want to start selling t-shirts gain, in addition to personalized pet wear on Etsy.
I really enjoyed the video and all the wonderful ideas, Crystal! I just had a question about the car decal. Was there anything else that needed to be done to it before selling it? How this decal ended would a customer just peel it and put it on their car window?
All you need to do is apply transfer tape and leave them on the backing. I would just have some thick cardstock with it and ship it in the envelope for some extra protection - Agata
Yes it is holographic! You can find it here - Holographic laminate www.143vinyl.com/styletech-confetti-laminate-12-x-12-sheet.html?partner=440066 - Agata
You would be using your printer to cut them and then the Cricut would cut the outline. If you aren't sure if your design would work, send it over to mail@designbundles.net and our amazing support staff can help! - Dawn
Thank you for such an awesome video. I want to make clear, waterproof, and printable stickers. What brand do you recommend for this? I was looking at the Koala Printable Glossy Sticker Label Paper.
My cricket is so fickle with print and cut so I let it cut it the first time and before unloading the mat i put the laminate sheet over it and hit start again. That way it will cut it out perfectly.
The transfer tape link above goes to the standard Cricut transfer tape, not what you used and talked about. Do you have a link for the liner-less one in your demo?
Is there a video on using your circuit strictly with your smartphone and no computer at all??? Please help if so bc I don't have a computer I'm trying to do all from my android phone. Also I don't understand the svg and all that. Can I still use svg with my phone or do I need a computer?? What's the difference in all the names ?
Have you ever run into a problem with prepurchasing your products and not able to sell them OR making one to show off and get orders, but go to buy more after taking orders and the store sold out of some/all the items needed to make your product? Is that tumbler made of silicone? It looks like silicone and I didn’t think vinyl sticks to that.
Hi there! These are the tumblers: www.amazon.com/Earth-Drinkware-SKINNY-TUMBLERS-pack/dp/B0BMSJQKV2 The vinyl will adhere, but we recommend letting the completed project sit for 24 hours before gifting or selling! - Dawn
Hi there! Are you a member of any Etsy seller Facebook groups? You may find support from other sellers. What types of crafts are you currently selling? - Dawn
For personal use it is fine. I used holographic permanent vinyl to add a name to the lunchbox and cup with screw on lid for my niece and after two years of weekly dishwashing they are fine.
