Hi! I’m a newbie so haven’t really a clue what I’m doing. I’ve just opened a shop selling greetings cards, prints and personalised items. I’m a graphic designer and illustrator working newly working for myself!

Hi Tabitha, you’ll find there’s lots of great advice on these forums, they’re a bit new just yet so a lot of people are still finding they’re way around, but there are lots of very experienced sellers here and remember that everyone was new once!

In at the deep end with the new forum - what I have seen so far is really good and I’m looking forward to spending more time here as I’d neglected the old one of late. I’m Sonia and I’ve had my shop, Fantoosh, here on Folksy for a couple of years now. I love making and selling my creations and meeting lots of interesting folks on the forums.

This is my first post on the new forum, so feeling a bit wobbly! I have managed to sort the avatar out, so have made some progress.
I am Pauline from The Crafty Curio Shop. I have been on Folksy for just over one year, have 74 sales under my belt and am loving it. Just hope I can get to grips with all this new stuff!

Hello Everyone
I’m very New to all of this, set up my Folksy Shop on here a few weeks back. Just saw that there was a Folksy Forum, so thought I would introduce myself Gemma of Lovely Papilio Designs and my shop https://beta.folksy.com/shops/LovelyPapilioDesigns
Have a beautiful sunshine day!

Hello Everyone waves
Looks good it will take time to get used to it. One thing though: why are not the sellers shops somehow linked to the profiles? So when I click on avatar it will give the profile and also direct button to their shop?
This is something I asked about, not sure yet if it’s going to happen but I found it extremely useful to be able to click on a sellers name to get to their shop.
Hi everyone! I’ve just opened my shop on Folksy so please feel free to pop over and offer any opinions I design and hand draw super cute illustrations for cards and I also create unique logo designs for small businesses. Has anyone got any top tips? Thanks
(I’m not sure if it shows up or not but my shop is https://beta.folksy.com/shops/MrTurtleDesigns)
Ooh, this is new and different. Hello everybody, I liked the old forums hopefully this new one will have the same sense of community. I create jewellery and accessories.
