I’m confused I’ve signed up to the newsletter. I’ve tried adding a post to the high fives section. But I don’t understand it just seems to be people saying congratulations etc. You can’t see what people have actually done

To be honest I was sceptical when I joined Folksy last month - would anybody like my animals and would anybody find them and buy them? The answer is YES, I have sold four animals, have had two featured in Folksy Favourites and three others added to Gift Guides - thank you to the people who bought my animals and thank you Folksy!

Just sold over 50 items. Whippee. Wait till I tell my Mum (she & I run our little hobby venture together but she’s away at the moment). I find it quite hard to find the time to do the promotion that I should as I work full time & we have 4 kids, so reaching over 50 sales is a really big thing for us. Mum & I love making so much though that we have to sell the stuff we make as we simply wouldn’t have enough space to store it all!
