Hi everyone. We’re hoping to put together a ‘High Fives of 2023’ featuring some of your milestones, achievements and things you’re post proud of this year. We’ll be sharing them across our social media over Christmas.
So if you’ve got something you’d like to shout about, please leave a comment below. Thank you!
Set myself a target for sales for 2023 of 100, met that +31, several happy sale dances.
I don’t know where we stand on showing customer reviews, but this review from a lovely returning customer has made my year.
Hi 
very modest number compared to other amazing makers but I’ve reached 50 sales. Just received my wee email lol 
happy days, chuffed to bits x
I made 100 sales in my first year, very chuffed to reach that total after a slow start but I’m determined to make a success of my Folksy shop!
i started again, from scratch.
learning to draw again, from real life 
, with old fashioned pencils, and then develop my drawings through to design & embroidered execution seemed daunting & overwhelming (especially for someone as risk averse as i am 
), but it’s been fun & rewarding, and a lot of my existing customers have continued to support my new direction.
looking forward to whatever happens in 2024!
Hi !
My high for this year was actually opening my shop at the end of July. I’ve been making things practicaly my whole life for family and friends. Taking the leap to open my shop and to have folk actually liking and buying what I make is amazing. I’ve started slowly with sales but I have had a returning customer which was lovely. I’ve already learnt such a lot from the lovely community of makers on Folksy and I’m working hard to make my shop a success.
I reached a thousand Folksy sales in October.
Awesome! Here’s to the next thousand!
Hi. I was so excited to reach the 500 sales milestone recently. A great way to end 2023!
Hello,
I was happy to be included in the Summer exhibition and another milestone was to be on the best-sellers’ list for one week. I am yet to reach 175 sales (I am currently at 174)! 
I had my 600th sale in March.
Well done to all on their achievements.
I made and sold artist bear number 600 in the Autumn (not including the letterbox and scandi bears), never thought I would see a number like that when I started. I’ve had health issues that meant i had to break from my furry creations so i designed a smaller bear to embroider and they have been very very popular. 2 custom orders to list in a day or two and I will have reached 300 sales on Folksy ! This has been my best year on Folksy so far so I’m feeling pretty chuffed with myself…oh and I reached number one in the best sellers earlier this year.
Yeah 300 sales on Folksy
This year so far I’ve had 168 sales on Folksy which equates to about one every other day. Which is usual for my shop, I thought it might be lower this year with the way things are, so thats a high five for me 
I’ve just reached 100 sales and have had my best year on Folksy so far 
I am coming back with an update that I have reached the 175th sale. Happy dance moment. 
I made it to 600 sales recently.
