Feedback please

Anyone in a helpful spirit wanna help me with some feedback on my shop and blog? I have recently undergone a rebranding and I am struggling settling on design, photos, etc.

I don't like the red font and why do you have the same information on the photo as you have for to title? It's redundant and interferes.

I agree with Richard about the text in the pictures. I'm not seeing product as much as the text.

Also, on this one:

https://www.etsy.com/listing/183449264/digital-file-paper-bowl-printable?ref=related-4

What is the pink stuff? It too is distracting to me, because the printable doesn't look like it has pink on it anywhere, but there is pink on the bowl.

Finally, I would say the reason for your shop name might be appropriate in your announcement, because it's a little confusing to me that your items have nothing to do with sleep.

I think the pink is just maybe tape used to hold the printed design together? Am I wrong?

I really like your banner.

One of the images in this listing is really pixelated.

Cool idea, wish you had an image of one in use though! I think that'd be a really cute pic.

Thanks guys I was thinking about getting rid of the titles on the photos I was just worried people wouldn't understand that they are craft kits. Love the feedback!

As long as you use the word Kit in your title and the description people will figure it out.

I agree with the others, get the words off the photos. Way too distracting.

Shop name - I would expect to find a shop with comfy pillows, soothing scents, some sort of white noise maker (hmm... there's a good idea), maybe one of those battery operated flickering candles in a pretty holder. I wouldn't expect family-oriented craft kits and the like.

If I were you I'd seriously consider a name change - something geared toward what you're actually selling... like KidsNGlue.

Ahh... I just looked at your sold items. Now I get the shop name. I presume that you decided not to do those things anymore. If you are going to resume selling those and the kits then maybe a name change to reflect something of both types or just do the two shops.

KitsNGlue?

Hi Alicia

Your banner is great and your shop looks so much fun however I agree your shop name is confusing re what you sell.

I'm going to disagree with the criticism of the text in your listing photos. I think it makes it very clear what you're selling and it will stand out against other listings in a search. It's very 'clickable'.

'If there were three of me, there would be way more listings' :D love it!

When I first looked at your shop page, it took me some time to figure out what you are trying to sell. Your shop title and your banner doesn't really align with things you are currently selling.

I agree with Cris, a shop name change would be good if you are planning to sell diy kits.

Your shop announcement plays a big part in shop SEO, it should contain as many keywords as possible for it to be found in google search. But right now it just contains shipping information and no valuable keywords.

Just looked at few of your tags, try to use all 13 tags as they play a major part in SEO. This article will help in improving your shop's SEO - https://www.etsy.com/help/article/247

I tried getting to your blog. For some reason it kept directing me to some Bible Gospel website. Both clicking on your link and typing it in...
