Folksy 365 - Daily Listing Challenge Thread - DECEMBER 2018

Morning all! As I decided not to do the second day of the craft show as it was so bad (no advertising, no publicity, very very cold! And you could only get to the fair via entrance to the venue it was held at a cost of £10 per person! So low footfall!! ) I’m having a lie in instead - yippee!!! So just listed this pair of gorgeous earrings, a 10mm white pearl yummy!! With a smaller white pearl and stunning dark one too

Hope anyone doing a fair today has a good one!!

Good morning all. Off to meet up with part of the family for our Christmas get together, we’re going for a pub Christmas dinner. There’s going to be 25 of us over 4 generations so I think it could be somewhat noisy, but so lovely to get so many of us together.
A new pair of mitts today.

Good morning.

Strange day yesterday - not sure why but just didnt seem to have any focus and just drifted around all day! Am hoping today will be better.

I did manage to get another scarf made - similar to yesterdays but in green this time.

Good thinking on abandoning the craft fair Karen @TheCornishHare, I’ve had to do that in the past too.

Lynn @erkinwald sound like it will be a lovely get together!

I wish I had an outlet to try near me, sounds like it could be good Caroline @carolinefrodsham

Wow Sarah @thedotterypotter! Mega congratulations, when you have finished with the sales fairy, set her free! Lol!

My item is a relist for now, hopefully will get a chance to take some photos later, dog sitting at the moment, and as soon as I get up to do something they are following me, and as soon as I sit down they cuddle up on the sofa with me, so stuck either way.

Sorry it’s a bit late but this is the last sales report for November 2018. It was a busy day with 30 people on the thread and 34 sales. The sales break down as follows:

Knits 4
Ceramics 24
Jewellery 5
Miscellaneous 1

This gives a cumulative for the 30 days of:

Ceramics 190
Jewellery 141
Miscellaneous 91
Cards 43
Knitting/Crochet 32
Bags 29
Xmas items 16
Art 8
Supplies 4

Total 544

Deborah Jones, DotteryPottery, Max Pring and Ali Dufty remain in the best sellers list.

In November 2017 we had 440 sales on this thread so we have far exceeded this quantity this year.

Commiserations to those who did not get a visit from the sales fairy. I feel sure she will visit you in December.

Morning everyone :slight_smile:

I have let the sales fairy go…I promise!..but…erm, well…she did leave a little something behind in the treacle again the other day! (Imaginations go crazy!)…her credit card! I may have just popped a few little bits and bobs on it! lol…I won’t be on Santa’s good list this year!

Today is my last making day for orders today (anything after today is a bonus) as I have a few larger bits to get dry and I promised delivery for the 14th! Eeeek. I’m also trying to work with a gammy thumb. I was out and about yesterday and (you know I tore a ligament and chipped a bone earlier in the year…just by pulling my trousers up?) I had a searing pain in that hand, then my thumb bent all to the right and now I can’t bend my left thumb properly again. I don’t really want to go back to the doctors so I’ve put the splint on again. Have any of you got any ideas on what to do with it…has this happened to you? Here’s a picture…It hurts below the thumb (not the actual thumb) and if I press just by the knuckle under the thumb, it sends me through the roof!

My listing today is:

Hope you all have a great Sunday with lots of sales. My item for today - a pair of earrings. I will be back later to catch up with “loving” and pinning and to give a report for sales on December 1st.

Morning all
Today’s listing is a star for Christmas

Sarah, @thedotterypotter no solutions here, but I hope the thumb recovers soon.
Karen @TheCornishHare good for you, I would always be thinking what if!
Lynn @erkinwald have a lovely day :purple_heart:

Yeouch!! That doesn’t look at all right Sarah @thedotterypotter:astonished: Don’t think you should be seeing a Doc only, they should be referring you to a specialist! Thumbs are really important! even more so for a maker! You might have to nudge the Doc to get them to refer you (The Doc may need you to tell them that it seriously needs sorting…) Hope you get somewhere with them…

Thought I’d give this a re:list

Loved & Pinned to here…

Morning all, here’s my listing for today, a teeny tiny needle felted baby penguin keyring.

It’s so hard to take decent photos when the weather is so dark and gloomy :persevere:
