Share your Folksy High Fives 2021

It’s taken me 7 months to complete our needle felted Avocado brooch and am super chuffed to see them added to Folky’s favourites! :avocado:

Hi
Very new to this and set up a shop this week.
Tallhoarder is a Yorkshire born eclectic living in exile in the Lincolnshire Wolds. Old enough to know better but not too old to plant trees. A graphic designer by trade that in 2019 decided life was too short to be trapped in a windowless box for 9 hours a day. Time became more precious than money so a hobby eventually became a living. In 2021 Mrs Tallhoarder had an idea to create an online presence which she now manages efficiently. I hope that all of you out there that love the beauty of natural things finds something that you like.
I specialise in Wiccan based products, which I handcraft from locally sourced wood.
Hope to see some sales soon

I just got my 50th sale on here which made my day as I had my second covid jab yesterday & was feeling pants until I saw the email.

I’m over the moon to make my 100th sale this afternoon - to a repeat customer, so I must be doing something right.
What she doesn’t know is that I have enclosed a bonus item as a 100th thank you gift. Hopefully it’ll make her day too.

I’m delighted that we now have a selection of our Fused Glass Goodies available in the Border Lights Gallery in Bishops Castle. This is the first time we’ve had our creations available in a retail outlet. Woo Hoo!

Due to a house move, then major renovations, my Folksy Shop had to be closed for quite a long time. I re-opened on the 1st of July, and am now pleased to say that I have my very own Studio; somewhere I can work in peace (instead of using the floor!!).

Once open, I almost immediately sold 8 Greeting Cards. An advert on Facebook fetched well over 100 likes and several shares!!!

Starling in Pink Flowers Greeting Card

Because of that I then had another sale, and a customer asking if I could reserve two coasters for her; so I may even have another 2 sales shortly.

What a lovely surprise!!! And great start!!!
