Hello Folksy folk! Iāve recently restocked my shop here after a few years when I was mainly selling on āanotherā site and so far Iām extremely happy! I had 4 sales here last month and none at all on the other site.
Anyway, Iām Julia, forty-something and I live in a small, very quiet, ex mining town near Edinburgh, with my partner Robb and my cat Hendrix. I studied painting at college in the 1980s then worked in retail (for too long) but Iāve been a full time maker for 10 years now, working mainly with textiles. I have recently branched out into doing some design and illustration and had cards printed. Always enjoy trying something new and still looking for my perfect product to sellā¦next I want to try mono-printing which Iāve not done for years!
Welcome! Your brooches are beautiful. Good luck with your shop!
Welcome Julia, I wish you all the best with your Folksy shop, I am based near you, in Edinburgh.
Hi Sarah, thanks for the welcomeā¦nice to know there are other Folksiers or Folksyists in these parts! I wonder how many more there are on here? Your shop looks great, especially love the pink leather!
Welcome Julia, just popped over for a quick peek of your shop, you have some lovely items on there, hope your shops sells well!
Tina
Welcome Anna, wishing you luck, you have a great shop!
Tina
Oooh!!! love your clothes Anna, gorgeous items.

Oh thank you SO much! Thatās very exciting! Iām very happy to be back
Hi everyone, My name is Kate and my Folksy shop is Tinder Box Candles. I live in Hampshire with my partner Paul, and our dog (Scooby) and two cats ( Timmy and Daisy). Paul and I make hand poured scented soya wax candles and wax melts. I originally made jewellery, but wasnāt having too much success, so I didnāt really list anything for a while. A couple of months ago our candle making hobby suddenly took off and I revamped my shop into Tinder Box Candles. Iāve had a few sales over the last few months and we have got into the craft fair scene, which has been quite successful too. We are on a bit of a steep learning curb, but we seem to be doing okay at the moment. Never really used the forums before but there are so many great tips and advice, and everyone seems really nice and supportiveā¦hope to be contributing a lot more in the future x
Welcome to the forum. I have been nosying in your shop.
You have lovely candles. Canāt wait to see more when you list them.
Thank youā¦we have a few more to add. Our wax melts seem to be more popular, so we are working on expanding our range of fragrances at the moment
I love your shop, all the different colours are so bright and make it really attractive to look at. The wine glass charms are greatā¦love the bunnies! ļø
Thank you. I try and make something for everyone. doesnāt always work but I try.
Those bunnies are very cute. I have a few Christmas and Halloween wine glass charms.to post. Oh and a cat set too.
Must admit I was looking at your melts they look lovely and vet they smell great too.
Why donāt you join the daily listing thread. Everyone is lovely and we all promote each others items and have a good old natter too.
Thank you, I will take a look
