My Art In Wax shop is just one away from 100 sales … Not bad in 3 years, I had my first sale to Margaret @Louisa15 just 3 years ago this week, it was a Poppy painting sold on the 18th August 2011
So with my next sale - number 100 I will be sending a little extra Art In Wax and on the day of the 100th sale I’ll be doing a very special discount exclusive to folksy - I don’t often do special offers nowadays so this will be fun …
Congratulations Hazel. That all seemed to fit together rather nicely with Margaret buying another poppy painting for the 100th sale. I do love a happy ending!!
Good luck for the next 100.

Fiona I think it takes a lot of promotion to sell online wherever it is, I do it all, facebook, twitter, google plus, I blog and I have my own website.
I think it all helps but it ebbs and flows, I have had months this year when I have only sold one picture on folksy (I sell elsewhere as well) and another month when I was in the folksy best sellers list so it’s hard to say what works. So I just keep chatting on about my Art In Wax here and there
I do look at what I can improve on and this year I have been displaying my paintings differently, following folksy suggestions and showing some pictures framed and in different settings.
When I started out on folksy 3 years ago I wasn’t sure I would sell any but it just goes to show
