MAY 2025 Daily Listing Challenge and Promotion Thread

Hello all

Been out doing bits and pieces in the garden - quite warm out there! Tomatoes are growing quickly out on the patio and have potted them on.

Well done to your son and his team at the football, Mina @theslothscavern

Afternoon,

Sounds like a nail biting match Mina @theslothscavern congratulations to your son and his team.

Had a lovely bluebell walk with a friend this morning. Now off to FIL’s for a bit of gardening.

Brenda @teabreaks make me a space on the naughty step, I found my trowel which raised a few titters in my toolbelt photos in the past!

Afternoon everyone,

I survived the aerial hoop class (here are 2 photos of my daring adventure yesterday afternoon) – I didn’t fall off, too much :stuck_out_tongue:

And today – is leatherwork day and hope my body forgives me for any bruising and soreness from yesterday.

Today’s listing is a nice peach colour, as it’s a sunny day and I feel this fits …

Back from visiting my sister. I took my laptop and showed her lots of photos I took in Kirkleatham walled garden. I think she enjoyed them, though she seemed to think they were taken just outside her window, where she sees all sorts of things and people invisible to anybody but her. Today apparently the whole cast of South Pacific kept going past, while last time we were there it was the Durham cricket team. In fact her room overlooks the tiny yard where the resident smokers gather. Ho hum…
Anyway, I have loved you all to here and done a little relisting. Here’s one most of you will have seen already, though not all.

Morning, no thunder storms yet but we are on alert from lunchtime so popping out this morning to get a few bits and post office run then it doesn’t matter what the weather does :cloud_with_lightning_and_rain:. Hope you all have a nice day and the weather isn’t too bad xx

Good morning. Well I have to say that despite my reservations regarding peoples spending habits that was the most profitable art trail I have ever done!! Admittedly about 1/3 of my sales were from my “bargain” section but still very happy with the result.
Today I will be going through the 10+ large boxes that are currently sitting in my kitchen and putting everything away and checking stock. I’m pretty sure I have updated my shop OK but had better check. This afternoon I have a shift at the gallery.
Hope its OK to join the thread - I will start loving from today
Today I have a pretty scarf for you

Congratulations on your sales Brenda @teabreaks, Judy @judyrowleyart and Sue @SueTrevor :dancer:
Pleased the trail was a success Roz @OrchardFelts and its lovely to have you back with us :grinning_face:

We were woken in the night by rain :grinning_face: I was very pleased as none was forecast for us and we have had no wet stuff for weeks! Quaver and Lyric will be happy as there field was getting very bare!

I didnt list yesterday as I got carried away in the garden, and my listings might be very hit and miss going forwards as unfortunately Folksy does not work for my products. I was hoping to have more time to make some more artisan candles but getting my website working is taking up most of my time right now. Not sure whether I will stay with Folksy when my subscription runs out :thinking: But for now I need to focus on where the sales are coming from! Hope you all understand. I am ok running the thread though :grinning_face:

Morning everyone :blush:

So pleased your art trail was a success Roz @OrchardFelts it’s such a good feeling to get some money back from work you’ve done that you wouldn’t normally display so you have a return for the goods used and hours spent on it. I spent a few years with a ‘bargain box’ on my stall to clear end of lines etc, it worked a treat.

Morning all. So sorry I’ve not been around this last few days. Combination of doing too much (allotment, destash sales, and visiting family) and also a bit of a creative block - which is still with me :pensive_face:. So I don’t think there will be anything to list from the The Old Button Sews shop for a while.

It’s good to catch up with your news and :heart:’ing your latest listings.

I’ll definitely be back later today with a new listing from the Supplies shop.

Need to do some watering now before it gets warmer. We don’t have any rain in the forecast but a surprise shower like yours Corinna @quaverlyric would be very welcome.
