Newbie Help

Hi fellow upcyclers, I'm fairly new to Etsy and I could really use some help. My shop opened back in January and I'm still waiting for that elusive 1st sale (which is driving me crazy). I'd really love some feedback or critique on my shop. What do I need to change or improve? How are my prices? Too low or too high? Are my shipping costs reasonable? Any insight is appreciated and I will gladly return the favor and let you know what I think of your store. Thanks!!!

Looks like you've gotten some sales....congrats!! Pics look great, products are good, prices seem fair. It just takes a while to get going. Be patient, stick with it and try some marketing strategies. Being on a team is a good first step. Try making a few treasuries. Be sure to list or delist items daily if possible.

Another suggestion, don't waste tags on team names. If you do a treasury, that's one thing, but listing tags are best used to describe you item in as many ways as possible. A painted canister could be....bathroom storage, craft storage, painted canister, painted jar, trinket storage, painted vase....
