Big Cartel helps artists, makers, and other creatives sell their work online. In this 40-minute class, you’ll learn how to set up and customize your own online shop with Kate Miss, an independent jewelry and graphic designer who works with artists all around the world to create successful Big Cartel shops.

Each bite-sized lesson walks you through the basics of adding products, finding the right design, and creating a look that matches your brand. Kate draws from her 6+ years of experience as a successful Big Cartel shop owner to help both designers and non-designers alike build a beautiful and effective store.
