Hi! Can anyone give me care advice for my African violet? Her name is Princess Di. New to my plant family as a gift. I gave her a new self watering pot and she is not in direct light.

Avoid getting the leaves wet; the hairs on them can trap water and cause rot. Otherwise you seem to be off to a good start. These are super durable little plants; if you make a mistake, don't worry, just ask questions because it can recover from almost anything
