Any suggestions for our Themes of the Day for November 2021?
We always love reading them and try to include as many as we can.
Please leave your ideas in the comment below.
With colder weather, maybe something like Winter Warmers, Snuggle up with a good book…
Hiya Camilla @folksycontent When you post an item from the theme of the day on the Folksy Facebook and Twitter pages, would it be possible to include a link to all that day’s theme of the day items as well, instead of just that one thing, people might be more inclined to have a look at all of them then, otherwise, they might just click on that one item and not know where to look for the rest, or may not even click on to the homepage afterwards to see. Maybe put an extra line saying "You can find more items from today’s theme of the day here…’
It just seems a shame as there are always so many lovely things that people who aren’t fellow sellers might miss out on seeing if they don’t know where too look.
