Etsy Handmade Texture QC
Etsy buyers look for texture: glaze, weave, grain, and stitch. This checklist helps you QA that the video stays honest to your handmade still — so fewer shoppers return.

Quick checklist
- Use Product shot (macro-honest) as your default for craft texture
- QA at higher scrutiny: confirm seams, prongs, stitches, and glaze boundaries in pause frames
- Pick 2K when small texture details must be readable (+1 credit)
- Avoid prompts that swap materials (returns trigger)
- Export silent MP4 so Etsy titles/tags carry SEO instead of burned text
Risk points (what causes returns)
- • Material boundary drift (stitch/glaze looks blended)
- • Colour temperature shift (handmade tone changes)
- • Invented micro-geometry (false detail)
- • Overactive motion hides texture and feels “not handmade”
Credits & upgrade hint
Credit math: Product 5s = 2 credits, Product 10s = 3 credits; 2K adds +1. Wearable is 6 credits (optional when on-body craft is part of your story).
Failed jobs should be retryable without double-charging credits. Still, fix still/motion cause before re-rendering.
FAQs
How do I QA texture fidelity for Etsy?
Pause early and late frames: confirm material boundaries (stitch/glaze/grain) and colour tone against your listing still. If texture blurs, upgrade to 2K or re-render with a cleaner reference.
When should I use 2K for Etsy?
Use 2K when the risk is sharpness: small weave, fine stitching, dial indices, or tiny labels/logos viewers expect to read.
Do failed renders double-charge credits?
Retry discipline: failed jobs should be retryable without double-charging credits. Still, fix reference/motion cause before re-rendering.
Is silent export best for Etsy?
Prefer silent masters. Use video motion to prove craft, while keeping titles/tags clean for SEO.
