I think it’s important to find a middle ground. When you’re creating something unique and pushing the boundaries, you can stand out—but that doesn’t always mean it’ll sell right away. If you want to make a living from your work, you need to understand what’s in demand.
I’d recommend researching trends and what people are buying, but still put your own spin on it. For example, if hand-lettered prints are popular, you could experiment with your own style or theme while still catering to that demand.
Hey @CraftDreamer, yes, it’s definitely possible to make a living selling crafts online, but it does take patience and strategy. I’d recommend starting on platforms like Etsy since it has a large user base, but there are also smaller marketplaces that cater specifically to digital and handmade crafts, which could help you stand out more quickly.
A key to success is finding your niche and building a brand that’s visually strong. Take some time to work on product descriptions, photography, and customer service—these can really make a difference!
