Morning all and a very Happy New Year.

Big thank you to Natalie @NOfkantsCurios for looking after us last month and to Max @MaxPringJewellery for picking up the reigns in January.

No fireworks last night, the dogs and cats slept peacefully as did we! Noticed the local fishing shop is no longer selling them, they are so expensive to just last for a couple of minutes.

Finally got my email from Folksy for making 300 sales. Opened my shop again yesterday and have made 3 sales already. Can you add to the tally please Max @MaxPringJewellery. Good start to the NY.

New creations for 2023. A greeting card including a gift voucher wallet.

Happy New Year - wishing you all a healthy, happy and prosperous 2023

Woke up to a sale - fingers crossed it’s a good omen for 2023. One for the tally please Max @MaxPringJewellery
Congrats on the 300 milestone Caroline @Caroleecrafts

Going for a roast dinner and games at the neighbours later. I do love a roast but rarely have one living on my own so it will be a treat. First though I have got to make a couple of green men to replace one sold in the gallery yesterday and also to have one on sale here.
Excited to be rejoining the thread with some listings this month

Heres one for today

Happy New Year to everyone

Big thanks as always to Max @MaxPringJewellery and Natalie @NOfkantsCurios for sorting us all out and well done on the sales already, impressive start

Hope the move goes well Natalie, we have just one heck of a rain shower so hope its better down your way.

December for me was not a good month healthwise but feeling much much better so hopefully January will be a good one.

I am going to start a sale later too, so fingers x

Back later with my listing

Happy New Year everyone! We stayed up til 11.30 and then went to bed and listened to the fireworks - wow - they were noisy! Thank you for looking after us last month Natalie @NOfkantsCurios and thank you Max for doing it this month @MaxPringJewellery

Well done on the 300 sales Caroline @Caroleecrafts I’ve now been on Folksy for a year (properly) and have made 26 sales which is fab - I’m wondering how long it will take me to get to 50. Be great if I could do it in 6 months - I think I’ll aim for that. I nearly had a sale last night. Someone in South Africa was trying to buy a digital pattern but couldn’t pay. By the time I had sorted it out she had bought it on the other side. Oh well, I’ve learnt a lesson and put all the overseas postage price as £0 on my patterns. Nice to see that things get seen across the world even though they are not able to buy them!

This is the last day of my sale - I’m putting most things back to full price tomorrow - so here’s my lovely duck wallet.

Happy New Year :tada:

I was up till 1am as our greyhound is terrified of the fireworks and they started before 9pm and went on till nearly 1am. The staffy snored through it all :see_no_evil:

Good morning everyone and HAPPY NEW YEAR to all, may we be blessed with wealth, good health and lots of sales.
It’s good to be back on the thread and to get back into a routine after the last few weeks away from the thread.
Thank you for looking after us last month Natalie @NOfkantsCurios and Max @MaxPringJewellery for picking up the dancing for this month.
Well done on your 300 sales Caroline @Caroleecrafts
We had lots of fireworks around here last night, they went on for ages. We woke up to torrential rain and a really loud spectacular thunderstorm here in Oswestry. I hope the rain keeps off for you today Natalie.
My Aunt is still here with us. We had a nice quiet Christmas and New Year but it was nice to be all together for a change. Brian is taking her back to Canterbury on Saturday and coming back home on Sunday. I’ll be home alone then.
Today I have a new listing of a baby’s cardigan

Morning all and Happy New Year!
We stayed up and saw the New Year in with a drink…Unfortunately there were lots of fireworks which really scared my cat, she spent most of the evening trying to hide. :pensive:
I’ve now finished my Sale, but I have added new items to my Sale section so there are still bargains to be had.
