What makes a sticker functional rather than decorative?+
It carries information. A payday, a deadline or a refill reminder replaces written text, so it is judged on how quickly it is understood rather than on how it looks.
Which labels are actually worth including?+
The repetitive ones people write out every week. Bills, appointments, work shifts, deliveries and cleaning are the categories that earn their place; novelty labels get used once.
How small can text go?+
Smaller than you think it can, and that is the trap. Text that is crisp on screen turns to mush on a home printer, so test a real print before listing.
Should I offer a blank version?+
It is worth including. Buyers always have one recurring task nobody anticipated, and a blank labeled sticker covers it without you guessing.
Can I sell functional stickers made with AI on Etsy?+
Yes, with disclosure. Etsy allows AI-assisted designs under its Creativity Standards as long as they are clearly described.
