I Need to See Detailed Photos

by Sherrie Nagle
(Fort Worth)

When I buy handcrafted jewelry I tend to buy it at Etsy.com. Though you can't actually touch and examine the jewelry in person, I think there are a lot of advantages to this sort of marketing versus, say, a craft fair.

First, good photography can illuminate small details that I wouldn't necessarily see if I were looking at a whole booth full of merchandise.

That would be my biggest tip for crafters looking to sell stuff online - learn to take really nice, really high-quality photos. I know that's the biggest draw when I'm looking at places like Etsy.

I've bought for both myself and others, particularly for birthdays and holidays. If I liked an artist enough, I absolutely frequent that online shop again.

Thank you for mentioning Etsy as a great site to find really hand made (by Artisans) jewelry. Since I have joined as a shop owner, I have enjoyed the friendship of other shop owners and I like the creativity and originality I have seen there. Since I am new to internet selling, I am learning all the time from great tips like Rena's collection.
Please come and see my work and by all means, leave me comments and helpful advice. Thank you Rena. I appreciate your efforts to help us to be successful. K
