Hello there!
Hello there!
I want to help digital product sellers build Etsy shops that feel good, sell well, and fit into real life. Not the hustle-all-day, work-while-you’re-exhausted kind of business,but one you can grow intentionally, in your own time (in between school drop-offs, laundry, and life in general). That’s exactly how I built my own shop, and I hope I can help you do the same.
This wasn’t always my world. I was a computer science professor before becoming a stay-at-home mom. When I needed something creative, flexible, and just for me, I turned to Etsy.
When I first dipped my toes into digital product selling on Etsy, I had no idea what I was doing. But I knew I wanted freedom, creativity, and a business that felt aligned with my life. I figured things out one product, one listing, and one small step at a time.
This little corner of the internet is for you if you want to start, grow, and thrive selling digital products on Etsy.
This is the platform where I share everything I’ve learned from building and running a digital product Etsy shop that feels aligned, simple, and sustainable.
I’ll be the first to say: I’m not a guru! But I am someone who’s been in the messy middle. I’ve learned through plenty of trial and error, made mistakes, and figured out what actually works (and what just wastes time).
Honestly, when I was still starting, I wish I had someone a few steps ahead to show me the way when I was just starting out.
So if you’re dreaming up your first product, trying to boost your sales, or finally ready to turn your shop into something sustainable with ease, alignment, and a whole lot of intention, I’d love to be that someone for you!
I’m an introvert, love my morning coffee, a tech geek, design enthusiast, online entrepreneur, mom to two kids, and wife.
I’m obsessed with Joanna Gaines’ and The Magnolia Homes design style.
I recently became an empty nester, and both my Etsy shop and Create, Sell and Thrive have provided a helpful space to pour my thoughts and energy into during this new season of life.
Yes, I still run my Etsy shop, The Fourth Bud Printables and Templates, with over 15,000 digital products sold and counting! My shop continues to bring me joy. This also means I’m right there in the trenches with you, staying up to date on Etsy changes so I can pass along what’s working right now.
This is where I share my Etsy experiences and what’s new in the world of running a digital product shop on Etsy. Let’s create, sell and thrive together!
