Challenge Thread - Daily Listing & Promotion December 2025

Morning all. It’s our eldest daughter’s birthday today and I can’t believe we’re old enough to have a 38 year old daughter! Perhaps we were just teenage parents? We’re taking her and her husband for lunch in a local Italian restaurant, as they’re not working today.

Some cheerful bowl covers from me today.

Good morning everyone.

Sorry you’re feeling poorly Max @MaxPringJewellery , there’s some nasty bugs going round at the moment, I hope you feel better soon.

I hope Olivia Greyhound feels a bit brighter today Carol @carolsmalleydesigns x

Holly @minimakes the Market of Kindness is a facebook based market, it’s held every couple of months and is in aid of the charity Kindness Community. It’s £7.50 to join the market for the month and all the money from the stalls goes to the charity. Here’s the link to their website https://kindness-community.com

You’re very welcome Donna @underneaththeeaves, the bracelets are adorable x

I’ve looked back at my sales for November and of the 30 I had only one of those was a Christmas card so guess what I’ll be sharing for the next couple of weeks :joy:.

Hope you feel better soon Max @MaxPringJewellery and healing hugs to everyone else who is under the weather.

Carol, @carolsmalleydesigns that sounds like such a worry with Olivia. I hope the scan results bring some clarity and that she settles a bit today.

I’m sharing a set of 5 Christmas decorations today.

Morning all.

Hope poorly folk feel better soon.

Hope Olivia is back to normal today Carol and that the results are good. @carolsmalleydesigns

Well it looks like the local men have realised Christmas is coming a bit earlier this year, 1 popped over yesterday for a ring and another is popping over this afternoon for a bangle. They normally leave it very last minute.

Good morning everyone, I did the Kindness Market I think I had 3 sales, thought I’d had better better as t’was lead up to Christmas, but I did collect a few more followers on FB which can’t be bad. I don’t think I will be doing the Feb one.

Anyhow here’s my offering for today, thank you. xx

Morning all, gloriously sunny and bright here this morning, hoping to get some photos done/redone.

The Kindness Market was ok-ish for me, I had some sales linked through it but not huge numbers (I had more through this group :grin: ). Personally I find social media difficult, and you need to work at it for FB markets. We all supported each other brilliantly - huge thanks to everyone who liked and commented on my posts - but again I didn’t get engagement from the wider community (poor reach or silent lurkers - I don’t know). Although I love supporting such a great charity, I don’t think I’ll do it again - Ill just make a donation or buy some of Laura’s merch.

Listing today is the last of the sewing/fashion themed zipped pouches - this one is my favourite, I think I’ll be making something for me with the fabric I have left - unfortunately not enough for a :dress:

Hi all. Was hoping to rejoin the thread this month but unfortunately my back pain has developed into sciatica and I have been in severe pain with very little sleep for a week, couldn’t sit or lie down and could only get a bit of relief by walking so have been pacing the house pretty much constantly. Managed to get some stronger pain killers yesterday but still suffering a bit and cant really concentrate on anything at the moment. Hopefully things will improve but until they do I think I am going to keep my shop in holiday mode and just forget about it for now - one less thing to think about. I hope you all have a good run up to Christmas with plenty of sales.

you sound just like me Max. Having struggled with it for about two weeks I had to go to the docs yesterday as I’m asthmatic and it felt like it was in my chest! Antibiotics only thank goodness so hopefully will be feeling better soon

Feel better soon too everyone :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I feel for you, sciatica is excruciating.

I hope the stronger meds help. I ended up on a cocktail of diclofenac, amitriptyline, diazepam and codeine which finally sorted mine out, I live in fear of it ever returning.
