JUNE 2025 Daily Listing Challenge and Promotion Thread

Welcome to the JUNE 2025 Daily Listing Challenge and Promotion Thread.

This is a challenge thread which means that as well as listing and posting your item to the thread you must visit all the other participating shops via their daily link AND :heart: that listing in their shop.

It does take a little time each day but it is well worth it because everyone who joins gets the benefit and the group is a lovely supportive place to be.

HOW TO TAKE PART (AND THE RULES)

Post your item for the day to the Challenge thread by copying and pasting the item URL from your Folksy Shop (don’t worry if you are not sure when you start just ask and someone will help). You can post a newly listed item or something already in your shop it does not matter.

On the Challenge thread click on the links for everyone’s posted item, this will take you to the item in their shop, and hit the items :heart: - this gives the listing a brief appearance on the Folksy front page under ‘Popular Right Now’ (this is the main rule for taking part in the Challenge)

The idea is we all do the same for everyone on the thread which gives us all an extra boost, along with virtual hugs and support from everyone in this lovely community.

If you have time you can also promote fellow listers outside of Folksy by pinning on Pinterest, making a Folksy Friday Board, posting on Facebook or Instagram etc.

If you have a Folksy sale while taking part in the Challenge thread post a message on the thread and tag me in @TheOldButton so we can all celebrate and have a happy dance with you.

I will keep a tally of sales during the month and will regularly post about these.

Please remember to do your bit (clicking on everyone’s items and :heart:ing them) missing the odd day or two is fine (we all have busy lives) but please do not ‘post and run’

Any questions at all, please ask. We are a friendly bunch and someone will be able to help.

Wishing everyone a busy and successful month

Good morning. White rabbits and happy new month. Managed to stay awake till 11pm last night and slept through till 6:30am - wonder if I can do it again tonight.

Zero sales on here last month so let’s see if I can improve on that this month.

Morning all, and welcome to June’s challenge.

For newcomers, I’m Sharon (also known as The Old Button) and I’m the host for this month’s thread. I have 2 shops on Folksy and I also have 2 accounts on here, which I appreciate may be a little confusing when you are trying to tag me for sales. Don’t worry - although I’m hosting through @TheOldButton I will also pick up any tags as @theoldbuttonsupplies.

Wishing you all many sales, and a very lovely June.

Sharon

Morning all. I’m back for the first half of June but then we’re off on holiday. I can see that sales were low in May which is odd as it was my best month so far this year and so I thought maybe things had picked up for everyone. I hope June is better.
It’s Mr WTC’s birthday today and we’re going to the cinema (first time for years!) to see The Salt Path.
Kicking off the month with my latest idea - little covers for pots of dips. There may be a few of these coming up! :blush:

Good morning all …

Happy June everyone !!

News for me – I’ve now rented space in a shop to sell some of my leather goods … so, if you happen to ever go shopping in Farnborough (and at the Princes Mead Shopping Centre) - feel free to stop by the shop called The Crafter’s Collective and see my stuff (and other cool things from other local artisans) …

Today’s listings is a lovely sketchbook … enjoy !
