Hi everyone! Sorry for the delay in posting our Folksy Friday theme this morning - there may have been other things happening that have thrown us a bit off course.
But to kick us off on our first official Folksy Friday Forum theme, we’d love you to share your favourite garden birds on Folksy! Click on the blog post below to see some inspiration from I Am Acrylic
So we’d love you to scour Folksy to find your favourite blue tits, wrens, blackbirds and their feathery friends and share them here. The idea is to spread the love, so please show us nic things other sellers have made and not nice things from your own shop

Excellent mind-reading Sue!
We’ll announce a #folksyfriday theme for the forums every Friday morning but you can also do your own! More info here
Every Friday we want YOU, the good folk of Folksy, to help us spread the word about all the amazing handmade items on Folksy by taking part in Folksy Friday!
You can do that by creating and sharing a Folksy Friday post on your blog, Facebook Page, Instagram account or as a Pinterest board. Once you’ve created your Folksy Friday, share it here and on social media using the #folksyfriday hashtag!
If you don’t have a blog or you’re not on social media, don’t worry. You can also take part in Folks…
