Wow, that's really creative! I like it!

Like TrashedClothing said, your pictures could be better, but other than that...

lizbot.etsy.com-  I really like the nautical stuff you have.  It appears as though you have some shadows in your lighting, you might want to find a way to brighten up the pictures so that the details show better. 

turkishvann.etsy.co m-  I agree with what has already been said, you need brighter photos.  I always take my pics in bright daylight, but for some reason they still come out dark.  I have to fiddle with the brightness in photoshop or on my microsoft photo editing program that is already installed with my Windows XP. You should also crop your main photo of each item so that they it is already square.  Etsy puts square photos on the front page of the shops and it's better if important elements aren't cut off.

Actually, they aren't totally square.  The image size on on the main page of shops is 155 x 125 pixels (same size that they use for the front page of Etsy).

I, too, love how you've used the petals!  I also agree with more lighting on your cards.  Great shop!

I really like your shop (I might have to snag that heart ring... so cute!).

Your pictures and pricing are good.  I also like that you've mentioned items are from a smoke-free and pet-free home.

I wish I had more constructive criticism to offer you.

Very nice. I love the holiday baby burps. I never found cute stuff like that when my daughter was a baby.

Thanks sweets4ever! I guess I'll except the praise. :p

[choleblack]

I'd like a critique of my shop. I know that I have to do something to photograph the hats better. Any ideas? How's the pricing? What other things can I improve to get more sales?
