I finally added these galaxy animals to the shop – get it here
Why I switched
Etsy recently increased their fees, which prompted most artists I know on Etsy to increase the pricing of their items. I followed suit, of course, but I didn’t want to force my customers to help eat that extra cost – so I figured I ought to offer a different solution that should make everyone a little happier.
Enter WooCommerce, a solution that’s already integrated to WordPress! It’s free to set up, and with a little CSS-styling plus fixing some security issues, I was ready to go.
The New Look
Since I was integrating my shop with the blog, I wanted to redo how my listings looked to better suit the way the blog looks! I went ahead and changed up my Etsy listings, too, so it looks nice and uniform everywhere.
I combined these prints into a series, as they originally were anyway! Get them here
Plus, Stickers!
I’ve been meaning to add stickers to the shop for ages, and with this shop redo I was able to! I also figured out how to mail them for significantly less – with stamps, in a hand-addressed envelope – which I hope is a solution that suits everyone.
These plant pandas are absolutely adorable as stickers – don’t believe me? They’re on my Instagram! Get them here
I hope this switch works well for everyone! If you’d rather shop on Etsy, my shop is still up on Etsy – and if you can’t help yourself but look for the best deal, well, that’s definitely the new shop here on the blog.
