  • Let me know when you have a Folksy sale, so we can celebrate and happy dance with you.

We hope you enjoy the challenge this month and whilst sales are not guaranteed this thread really does help with building expose so please do join in the extra promotion when you can.

Good Morning All.

Yesterday weather odd, bright sunshine but a bitter wind, then grey and snow, repeat. Got up in the middle of the night to photograph the meters as forgot before I went to bed. Cold in the garage in my pj’s!

Put my shop on holiday until I sort the postage increase will put back up tomorrow pm. Think this task is going to take ages.

Thank you for taking up the reigns this month Natalie @NOfkantsCurios

In the meantime plenty of new creations for April. Mini sticky note holder

Morning all, happy new month to you all. Have woken up to a layer of snow and a very strange yellow sky…
Many thank Max @MaxPringJewellery for being mum last month, and thank you Natalie @NOfkantsCurios for looking after us this month.
Congratulations Natalie on Lord Ofkants retirement and so glad you refused your bosses and had the day to celebrate with your husband.
Very many thanks Mandy @feelfeltfound for including my bunting in your FF board.

April Fool’s Day?
The following listing is a real painting, not a fool one…
(New avatar with a more realistic, if not very young looking, me. I added lines under my eyes, however that does not make a difference. I am 68 and this “girl” is maybe 20 the most)

Good morning. Woken to a white covering but don’t expect it will stay for long although it is very cold out there. Just contemplating whether the dog really needs a morning walk but of course he does so will have to brave it!

Nothing much on the agenda for today although as it is the end of the month I guess I need to sort the gallery accounts.

My listing for today, another textile landscape

Goooooood morning all - lovely to be back for another month!

I’ve given everyone a love up to here (I’d already loved your purple dress Sharon @OhhhWhatAYarn so I gave some love to that gorgeous yellow romper suit instead, hope that’s OK!). Here’s mine - thanks everyone :slight_smile:
