ETSY SELLING TIP # 2

USE TINY SIZED
PHOTOGRAPHS OF YOUR WORK

I’m sure you’ve already read that you need to take appropriate and appealing photographs or scans of your artwork or crafts before you post them on Etsy.  What you really need to do is post the smallest photograph possible without being microscopic.  Posting a small photograph ensures that you don’t reveal any negative details about your work that may turn away buyers, such as lack of artistic talent, flaws (screw-ups) in your craftwork, and other such unpleasantries. 

Let your buyers use their own vivid imagination when viewing your photos of your artwork.  Don’t sweat the details- let the buyer guess the details !  Make them use a magnifying glass up against their computers to keep them on their toes !  


If you do choose to post a larger photograph or scan of your artwork or craft, then use a filter or digital method to really blur those images and make them all fuzzy and dreamy, like they did in those old Audry Hepburn and Elizabeth Taylor movies.  Lull your buyers into a dream and maybe they will buy !
