"I always do the first line well, but I have trouble doing the others." - Molière

Do you have writer’s block when it comes to crafting your Etsy item listings? Having trouble conveying what your item is, or drawing attention? There is no “perfect” item description...but there are more than a few articles about how to write a stunning item description, and I am linking to my favorites, for your reading pleasure. Browse the articles and tips, and write down the ones that make sense to you. Enjoy, and I hope they help! Feel free to let me know which ones were most helpful to you, in the comment section.
