...that make me happy. Like when you've just listed a load of items on Folksy and they all appear in the recently listed row on the home page like this:
I have these lovely Nordic hand knitted decorations on my Christmas tree and along the mantlepiece like in the images shown.
Click here to visit my Folksy shop for details.
£3.50 each or £35.00 for a set of 12. Why not have some made up to match your colour scheme? Made to order - please allow one week for delivery.
Well what do you know, after joining Folksy almost a year ago and not having a single sale, all of my listings had expired. So, yesterday I thought "What the hell" and popped a listing on in the morning. And guess what - sold in the afternoon. Now that's what I call a result. If only it was always so simple...
With CRAFTfest almost upon us I've got my organised head on. I'm busy ploughing my way through everyone's stall albums pinning selected goods, tweeting and Facebooking. I've tried to approach this as systematically as I can but even so it's a long road I'm travelling. And I don't think my laptop is appreciating the endless application switching either. Never mind It's all in a good cause. I just hope everyone is putting in the effort to make the event work.
Take a look at some of the items for sale by visiting my CRAFTfest Pinterest board and please feel free to repin and share with your friends.
