Daily Listing Challenge and GROUP Promotion Thread April 2025

Showcase
1

Welcome to the APRIL 2025 Daily Listing Challenge and Promotion Thread.

This is a challenge thread which means that as well as listing and posting your item to the thread you must visit all the other participating shops via their daily link AND :heart: that listing in their shop.

It does take a little time each day but it is well worth it because everyone who joins gets the benefit and the group is a lovely supportive place to be.

HOW TO TAKE PART (AND THE RULES)

Post your item for the day to the Challenge thread by copying and pasting the item URL from your Folksy Shop (don’t worry if you are not sure when you start just ask and someone will help). You can post a newly listed item or something already in your shop it does not matter.

On the Challenge thread click on the links for everyone’s posted item, this will take you to the item in their shop, and hit the items :heart: - this gives the listing a brief appearance on the Folksy front page under ‘Popular Right Now’ (this is the main rule for taking part in the Challenge)

The idea is we all do the same for everyone on the thread which gives us all an extra boost, along with virtual hugs and support from everyone in this lovely community.

If you have time you can also promote fellow listers outside of Folksy by pinning on Pinterest, making a Folksy Friday Board, posting on Facebook or Instagram etc.

If you have a Folksy sale while taking part in the Challenge thread post a message on the thread and tag me in @Caroleecrafts so we can all celebrate and have a happy dance with you.

I will keep a tally of sales during the month and will regularly post about these.

Please remember to do your bit (clicking on everyone’s items and :heart:ing them) missing the odd day or two is fine (we all have busy lives) but please do not ‘post and run’

Any questions at all, please ask. We are a friendly bunch and someone will be able to help.

Wishing everyone a busy and successful month

Caroline (Carolee Crafts)

Good morning and happy April.
Have missed joining in and unfortunately haven’t had time to keep up with news etc so I hope you are all well and happy and making lots of sales.
I have been kept busy making lots, mainly remakes of sold items - the gallery seems to be keeping me busy :slight_smile:

So for today, if I remember how to do it … a slightly modified green man

Morning all, great to be back with you all. Gloriously sunny here in South Wales.

I’ll be posting mostly from The Old Button Sews account this month, but wanted to say hi from here too :grin:

For new members, I have 2 shops/2 accounts here, and you may find comments and :heart:s from either of them (occasionally both).

Congrats to those with sakes already today, happy dancing :woman_dancing:
