I feel like having seperate shops would be good because the handmade and vintage sectors of Etsy are a bit different. If there are colors or items that would be good to link to items that are similar or might be of interest in other shops, then add it in the item discription to encourage browsing in both shops. Also, if you have some social media sites to share with your customers (or even ask what they would like) your ideas and maybe eventual new shop.
I've been wondering the same thing about my shop- all my stuff is handmade. It is just that I have a wide variety of things that would fit in multiple categories: Original and reproduced Art (watercolor, photography, acrylic, graphic design), crochet/knit accesories, and upcycled items (envelopes, mobiles, etc). I would like to add in more things like handmade jewelry and embrodered kitchen towels. Is this too much to showcase in one shop? What should be seperate from the others? Or maybe how to organize if I keep it all together? Perhaps you could give me some advice as well?
