How to leave feedback for Etsy shop owners!

Feedback is an important part of Etsy. For me, it lets me know the customer has received their order and is happy with it! Receiving new feedback makes mine, and many other shop owners, days. However Etsy can be confusing as it’s constantly changing, so here’s how you can leave some!

First, log into Etsy.com and the top of the site will look like this below. Find the “Your Account” link on the top right:

Hover over the link and a drop down box will appear where you can select “Feedback”:
 

This will bring you to the Feedback page, where you can leave positive, neutral or negative feedback on your orders, add commentary and even upload a photo for the shop owner to see. It’ll look something like this:

Feedback is important not only to the shop owner, but to other customers. Seeing other peoples comments will give a potential customer the confidence to order something from someone who has 100% positive feedback, or be wary if there’s negative comments left. Only the shop owner will see who left what comment, to everyone else it’s anonymous and looks like this: 
 

Conversely, shop owners can leave customers feedback on whether they were good to work with, paid on time, etc. Hope this was helpful, and if you’ve ordered something from my shop recently I hope you’ll leave me some feedback about your experience over on Etsy! :D

A few people have been confused and have been trying to enter coupon codes on etsy and they can’t find the place to do so. I took the liberty of screencapping this example so you can all see what to do.
You’ve added the item to your cart and you’re ready to check out. This is the screen you’ll see. 
Under the payment options and above the price breakdown is a link that says “Apply shop coupon code”
Click on that link! 
It changes and a text box will appear where you can enter your coupon! 
Click “Apply” and the prices will adjust for you based on the type of coupon you have, here is one for 20% off…
Then you hit that lovely green Check Out button, enter your paypal/credit card info and you’re order is complete! :)

ablogwithamoose asked: I love your things. They're so cool! If you ever get the chance, anything owl city related would be AMAZING and i'd definatly buy it xD

Thanks for the compliment! I don’t know too much about them except that one song that was on the radio a lot a year or so ago. If anything you can always commission me for a custom Owl City item :)

notunlikepride asked: Would you even consider making other canvases with doctor who quotes? I have "We call them miracles" and it's absolutely gorgeous btw, thank you. I'm saving buying the "you'll dream about that box" one for a rainy day.

Well thanks for getting the miracles one, first of all! If you want, I have a submit button on my page, you can take a photo with it (or of it displayed~ in your home) and submit it to me and I’ll post it :D

Second, a few people have mentioned they’d like to see other kinds of DW canvases! One girl was very excited about a Dalek themed one. I’d love to do it - I just think I need to find the right quote first and then build it that way, which is how the Miracles & TARDIS canvases came into being.

Thank you for being lovely and for your support :’)

dereklikesthis asked: Hey, I'm considering purchasing one of your canvas pieces but I have a question about possible display of them. I'm going back to college and would love to have it displayed on the wall in my room, but of course it is a dorm so the walls are concrete. Do you know if there would be anyway to put something like that on a concrete wall without ruining it?

To hang on a wall your best bet would probably be going to a walmart or crafty type store and just buy a cheap 5x7 frame for the canvas. That way all the bits and bobs that can hook onto a nail (or whatever thats on your wall) is connected to the frame - not the canvas.

Another thing that might be helpful are the Command Strips that are supposedly really strong for hanging things but come off of walls cleanly (which should be excellent for dorms!) I’ve never used them myself, but here’s their product page especially for “Picture and Frame Hangers

Worse comes to worse, if you’ve got a shelf you could always just give the canvas a nice diagonal prop up against your books or something :)

Hope this helps!
