Hi yes we’re from Wales living in a little village just outside Usk in Monmouthshire. I’ve only been on Folksy since last March and the people here are so incredibly supportive and helpful. Good luck with your shop. Welcome to Folksy! :wales:

I’ve not had the confidence to do a craft fair as yet, I building up to it! Folksy is a great platform but you do have to market yourself through social media, it’s the main way to get sales. As you already have a good FB following you should be fine. We went to Pembrokeshire for a break last year, it was awesome!

I am in Port Talbot and sit in my lounge looking out to sea…fabulous…
I am an oldie at 77 and have spent my life making and selling. Did hundreds of craft fairs ( loved doing them Hilary)…made loads of friends and had lots of laughs along the way.
Interestingly my favourite colour is purple…is there any other colour?
Welcome to the gang Brett.
Sor far by joining the challenge thread you are on the right road to success…it is hard work but we have a lot of fun.
I also run the naughty step on the challenge thread, so if you are naughty you have to join me there for cake and drinks…ha ha…We have other “blokes” who are on the challenge thread. But I am sure you will be happy with all the ladies…
Waving along the M4 ish…

Hi Brett. We’re practically neighbours as I live in Keeston! I’m not Welsh myself just kind of adopted Wales as a lovely place to live. Welcome to Folksy and I wish you lots of success, you have some really gorgeous pieces in your shop. :smiley:

I’ve noticed lots of Welsh sellers on Folksy - I’m just over the border in Leominster, Herefordshire but it is the Welsh Marches and I do love Wales it’s such a beautiful friendly place. I think you are right about the Welsh having crafting in the blood - all those wonderful welsh blankets and wooden carvings and as for poetry and singing - simply magnificent.
