Top 5 places to buy quality crafting blanks

We all know finding good quality crafting blanks at an affordable price can be pretty hard. Sure, you can find tons of cheap stuff for blanks but cheap usually means poor quality too. Do you want to sacrifice all your hard work and time to create a quality craft and then put it on a poor quality blank? No, I didn’t think so. And I know you don’t want that negative review stating your product was poor quality when in reality, your craft was totally awesome and it was the blank you put it on that was poor quality. That’s no way to run a business and no way to get repeat customers.

 

I also know that to run a business you have to make a profit and there are tons of other people out there selling the same thing you are and they’re selling it for less. It’s infuriating, I get it. I live it every day. I’ve come to learn that quality matters! When someone goes and buys something from the least expensive shop only to realize when they get it that the item is really crappy quality, they’re not going to do that again. The shop they bought it from loses a return customer and you could gain one by offering a more expensive, better quality product. Trust me, people PAY for QUALITY!

Where to buy quality blanks for crafting

I’ve put together this list of online stores with the best quality crafting blanks at affordable prices. They do cost a bit more than the cheap stuff but you can feel good about putting your quality crafts on a quality crafting blanks and offering your customers the best possible product.

Are you crafty or do you have a unique talent? Do you want to learn how to use the Cricut or be your own boss by starting your own Etsy shop?

At Crystal's Crafties I provide detailed tutorials on how to use the Cricut and create other DIY crafts. I also provide step-by-step instructions and tips for creating an Etsy shop and being a successful Etsy seller. When I started with my Cricut and my Etsy shop I found that I was having to look through dozens of websites to get all the info I needed. There just wasn't a one-stop-shop for everything I needed.

That's why it's my mission to provide you with all the info you need to set up your Etsy shop and be a successful Etsy seller. And to get you crafting some of the DIY's you're going to want to sell in your Etsy shop.

If you're struggling with how to use the Cricut, with DIY crafts or your Etsy shop I think you'd really enjoy reading my blog.
