Etsy Trends


While reading monthly specifications with merchandising tips you may observe certain similarities- boom for some things continues and according to prognoses it will continue for much longer.
In this article I will try to enumerate the most prominent trends. Getting acquainted with them will help you to better understand the market, that is, your potential clients.

Owls & Feathers
When searching the word 'Owl' we will be able to find as much as 100 thousand products connected with this keyword. The word 'Feathers' is as much as 150 thousand results. Sellers who are aware of popularity of those terms will tag properly their items. By doing that they will increase their chances to be on Etsy front page, in newsletters and many other places where they can be spotted by potential clients.


Steampunk
Mechanisms, inventions, victorian era, everything that is the magic of steam era. Fans of this alternative reality search the internet for clothing, gadgets, fanarts with which they identify and which they can put on during conventions. It's up to you if you decide to include products connected with this branch of fantasy in your offer to gain new recipients of your art.

Forest, Acorns & Deers
What makes the motif of acorns so popular? Regardless if the reason lies in progressing urbanization or fashion- for us it's important that it's in vogue. Simply put some next to your item while taking pictures to make the final effect closer to heart and for easier reception. The photo has higher chances to be noticed by clients amongst thousand others.



Sirens, Maps & Globes
New Year is a good excuse to make thorough cleaning. Scour piles of useless belongings for some old maps. Have you found a fragment corresponding to a particular country? Brilliant! Make use of it and it will get interest of it's citizens and tourist who want original souvenirs.

Mustache & Cupcakes
Cupcakes with mustache? Sure! For some unexplained reasons, sometimes called fashion, there is a huge demand for mustache. It belongs absolutely everywhere, and if in any degree this motif suits your shop you can increase your sales even by 25%.

Bicycles & Old Cameras
At present time of savings and recycling we change cars for bicycles. Etsy does the same. Interest in gadgets for cyclists is quite big and at the same time they are intensively promoted by administrative team of the service. You haven't exercised such promotion yet? Sometimes luck need some help.

Keys, Arrows & Diamonds
Simple, modernistic forms are elements of modern world. Refer to practical solutions, paying attention to quality of details and customers will come back for more.

There's no accounting for taste. However, it's worth to observe newest trends to choose what suits us best and fill up our shops with real treasures.

  8. I have been browsing online greater than 3 hours nowadays, yet I by no means discovered any interesting article like yours. It's pretty price sufficient for me. Personally, if all webmasters and bloggers made just right content material as you probably did, the web might be a lot more useful than ever before.
