Make an Etsy Banner in 10 Minutes | Professional and Easy with Canva (Update in Description)!

[@JessVanDen]

UPDATE: Etsy say that the minimum required size for big shop banners is 1200 x 300px. The recommended size is 1600 x 400px" - the one Canva makes is the smaller version. You can easily make yours bigger by clicking 'create a design' then choosing the 'custom size' option, and entering 1600 and 400. ALSO: Here is a short video showing you how to actually upload your banner to your Etsy shop: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aavdn2yIjKiofJI

Think I'll just try to make my own in Gimp using the measurements you gave. Thank you so much!

[@blissessentials524]

[@Bekind95]

Yes, agree.

A Really helpful tutorial, thank you. but when I’ve downloaded the banner and added it to my etsy shop, the photos look really poor quality, but they look clear and crisp on Canva, any suggestions please? Thank you

[@nurse4alifetime617]

[@Jeremya74]

So you say your gonna show how to make banner and then when you watch your vid,you show how to make a COVER?????

[@fefetravels7252]

Thank you, I have been having just a real hard time trying to make my Etsy page look good. I have Canva and I did not even know that I could do this. I opened my shop yesterday and did not like how it looked. I am going to go and work on my banner right now,

[@ItsJessie915]

Thank you so much for helping with this. I just made a banner :) My shop name is Olioah

[@bekahsbites9420]

Thanks for the video! Very helpful.

[@nancy-ann-ciancee5127]

What if you’re making it for someone else? Will this work do you still need to login to Etsy?

[@adronastarlucky4327]

Omg how do you save it and send to Etsy???

[@JessiTheBestiGaming]

You save it to your computer, and upload the file onto your banner.

[@plantastica4622]

Very nice video, but how do you add it to your Etsy shop once you create it in Canva? Thanks

[@JessVanDen]

Download the file, then go to your Etsy shop and look for the 'edit shop' button on the banner. You'll then go to the edit window, and in the lower left corner, there is a pencil button that will allow you to add the new banner. I show this at 1:30 in the video.

[@plantastica4622]

@Jess Van Den thanks will do

[@KathiHeern]

Thanks great video clear instructions.

[@ReneesatItAgain]

I did this for my Mom's etsy shop Gem2theivintage, and the image came out very very pixelled!!!

I have no banner so I cant even find an edit shop anywhere? can you assist me here thank you

[@loriheald992]

We’ll explained. Thank you.

[@PraiseTheLord-JesusChrist]

Absolutely great video. Thank you! 🙂

[@JessVanDen]

Glad it was helpful!

[@WolfgangHolzmann]

The video completely ignores the actual part where you make it your banner though. How do I get it from Canva to my !#%@#!$$!&&! Etsy cover spot? God this frustrating. And every time I save the design, it comes out blurry, despite the fact I'm using quality images and not resizing.

[@JessVanDen]

I have a video showing you how to upload it here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/aavdn2yIjKiofJI

[@WolfgangHolzmann]

@@JessVanDen Thank you. I'm far too impatient for this stuff, obviously.

[@BBFCCO733]

Having trouble with Canva. I have made 3 banners each time I can't save it and apply it to my Etsy shop without it prompting me to pay.

[@JessVanDen]

You may have used a paid element?

[@yayyay7076]

Thank you sister

[@pmanevoguish7542]

imade a cover /banner on canva but am unable to figure out how to get it to my etsy shop keeps saying wrong file type and when I get right file type says its too small

[@hadeelm9974]

thank you soo much this was helpful

[@Daph112]

In my experience, using the default Etsy Shop Cover from Canva would give me a very pixellated picture

[@JessVanDen]

1200 is the minimum size Etsy requires, which is what the Canva template is. You could try making a higher-resolution image in the same scale and see if that fixes the problem.

[@Daph112]

@@JessVanDen I just used the Canva Elements and fonts and they were grossly pixellated

[@JessVanDen]

Hmm, that's strange, I've never had that issue. What format did you export them in? Make sure to do png.

[@Daph112]

@@JessVanDen I did PNG..

[@ReneesatItAgain]

@@Daph112 Same here...I did this for my Mom's Etsy shop!! Very grainy.

Hey, I used your tutorial, made a banner, here’s the link to my etsy!

Oop, i cant paste the link

[@alexisoliva6427]

thanks so much!

[@jahspazz6010]

how come it doesnt say edit shop on my etsy profile?

[@JessVanDen]

You have to be logged in, then it should give you the option when you visit your shop. Or you can do it from your shop dashboard.

[@jahspazz6010]

@@JessVanDen thank you sm!! I’ll give it a try
