Faith-Based Niche Guide for Etsy & Blog Creators
I remember the very first time I created a Bible verse wall art print.
It was a quiet morning. I had worship music playing low, coffee in my favorite chipped mug, and my heart was full. I wasn’t trying to start a business that day, I just wanted to create something beautiful to hang by my desk. Something that would remind me who I am and whose I am.
I typed out “She is clothed with strength and dignity” (Proverbs 31:25), added a soft watercolor flower, and printed it on some cardstock. That print is still taped to my wall, and it started a faith-based business I never expected.
If you’re drawn to Scripture, design, and sharing hope with others, this post will walk you through how to create and sell Bible verse wall art, even if you’re starting with zero experience.
This is your faith-filled guide to creating meaningful art that not only inspires others but also brings in a steady stream of passive income from Etsy, your blog, or your online shop.
Let’s dive in.
Why Bible Verse Wall Art is a Beautiful Niche
Faith-based wall art is more than just a pretty printable. It’s a ministry. It’s a message. And for many, it’s the exact word they need on a hard day.
Here’s why it works so well as a product:
- It’s evergreen: People are always looking for meaningful Scripture gifts—Mother’s Day, birthdays, baptisms, or just encouragement.
- It’s printable: No shipping required. You create once and sell endlessly.
- It meets a deep need: Encouragement. Peace. Hope. God’s Word never returns void.
Whether your style is minimalist, floral, boho, or bold, there’s room for your unique creative voice in this niche.
What You Might Need to Get Started
Don’t worry, you don’t need to be a designer or invest in expensive tools. Here’s what I use to create my Bible verse prints:
Tools & Resources:
- Canva (for fonts, elements, and resizing)
- Creative Fabrica or Design Bundles (for commercial-use fonts and illustrations)
- Etsy or Payhip (to list your printables)
- Pinterest (to drive traffic to your shop or blog)
- Smartmockups or Canva frames (for product images)
Optional but helpful:
- Procreate + iPad (for hand-lettered verses or illustrations)
- Adobe Illustrator (if you want more control over vector design)
Step-by-Step: How to Create Bible Verse Wall Art in Canva
Let’s walk through the exact steps to create a printable Scripture art piece from scratch—even if you’re brand new to this.
1. Choose Your Verse
Start with a Bible verse that speaks to you. Some of the best-sellers are short, powerful, and encouraging.
Best-selling Bible verse ideas:
- Jeremiah 29:11 – “For I know the plans I have for you…”
- Proverbs 31:25 – “She is clothed with strength and dignity…”
- Psalm 46:5 – “God is within her, she will not fall.”
- Isaiah 41:10 – “Do not fear, for I am with you…”
Tip: Use public domain versions like KJV or World English Bible to avoid copyright issues, or get proper licensing if using modern translations like NIV or ESV.
2. Choose a Size and Format
Most people prefer 8×10″, 11×14″, or A4 sizes—easy to print and frame.
In Canva:
- Click “Create a Design” > Custom Size > 8×10 in (or try A4 for international buyers)
- Choose portrait orientation
3. Pick Your Style
This is where your personality and aesthetic shine. Do you love:
- Soft watercolor florals?
- Minimalist black-and-white?
- Rustic farmhouse?
- Boho line art?
Decide on a consistent look and feel. A cohesive collection will keep your customers coming back.
4. Add Your Bible Verse
Type your verse using 1–2 beautiful fonts. I like pairing a script with a serif for contrast.
Example:
- Header font: Playlist Script or Brittany
- Body font: Lora, Playfair, or Cormorant Garamond
Make sure your text is readable, centered, and spaced well.
5. Add Visual Elements
This is where you bring the verse to life.
Ideas to include:
- Watercolor flowers
- Crosses, hearts, doves
- Line art florals
- Rainbows or celestial details
- Nature motifs (mountains, trees, sunrises)
Use high-quality, commercially licensed elements. Canva Pro includes a large library of free-for-commercial-use graphics, or check out Creative Fabrica.
6. Export Your File
Export in high-resolution (300 DPI) as a PDF for print or PNG.
Many sellers offer multiple sizes in one listing (8×10″, 11×14″, 16×20″) for flexibility.
How to Sell Your Bible Verse Wall Art
Now that you’ve created a beautiful piece, it’s time to list it and start selling!
1. Set Up Your Etsy Shop (or Use Payhip)
If you don’t want to mess with shipping or inventory, stick with digital-only listings.
What to include in your listing:
- Title: “Proverbs 31:25 Bible Verse Wall Art – She is Clothed with Strength and Dignity Printable”
- Tags: Use faith-based keywords (Bible verse art, Scripture printable, Christian wall decor)
- Description: Let buyers know it’s an instant download, what sizes are included, and how they can use it (home, nursery, gift, etc.)
- Pricing: $4–$8 per digital print, or offer bundles for $12–$20
Alternative: Use Payhip or Gumroad if you want to sell directly from your blog or Instagram.
How to Drive Traffic (Without Feeling Overwhelmed)
Here’s how I market my Bible verse art passively:
1. Use Pinterest
This is your BEST friend.
- Design pin images in Canva (1000×1500 px size)
- Add keywords like “Printable Christian Wall Art” or “Scripture Print for Office”
- Link to your Etsy shop or blog
Pro tip: Schedule pins with Tailwind to stay consistent.
2. Share on Instagram or TikTok (Faceless)
Even without showing your face, you can create videos like:
- “Here’s what I designed today…” with calming music
- Mockup reveals with Scripture voiceovers
- Speed-design videos using Canva screen recordings
3. Build a Freebie & Email List
Offer one verse printable as a freebie (like a Psalm 23 art print). Add it to your blog or link in bio, and collect emails with a simple form using ConvertKit or MailerLite.
This builds a community and gives you a place to launch bundles, devotionals, or journaling pages later on.
What I’ve Learned Creating Bible Verse Wall Art
When I first started, I worried I wasn’t “good enough” at design. But over time, I learned this:
✅ People are hungry for hope
✅ You don’t need to be perfect—you just need to start
✅ Your unique style will speak to someone
✅ Creating for the Kingdom can also bless your income
What began as a side hobby turned into a stream of income I can build during quiet mornings, school pickup waits, or post-bedtime hours.
Product Ideas to Expand Your Faith-Based Shop
Once your first few prints are live, think about branching out!
Here are faith-based printable product ideas:
- Wall art bundles by theme (Peace, Proverbs, Psalms)

The beauty of this niche is how deeply people feel your products. You’re not just selling art—you’re helping them hold on to truth.
Your Faith Can Fuel Your Business
If you’ve ever felt a pull to create for more than just profit, to create for purpose, Bible verse wall art is a powerful place to begin.
Start with one verse. One design. One listing.

Because in a world full of noise, your art can point people back to peace.
