Stocking the shelves!


Well, the Folksy store has been open around a week now and I am slowly adding bits to it.

Have manage to persuade hubby to let me list a few pieces of his artwork so that should complement my handmade items nicely.

Hoping that we can make a sale soon and gets things going but we'll see how things go.

Would appreciate if you could pop over and have a look and maybe even consider giving us a share on social media.

The shop can be found here and I shall be listing more items over the next few days.

Here is a sneak preview of some of the items listed so far.

Folksy here we come.

At the end of last year, you may remember that I said I was considering re-opening the shop on Folksy that I had started back in 2010 when I was raising funds for Macmillan after being diagnosed with womb cancer, then I changed my mind.

Well, I've changed my mind again and am pleased to say that the shop has re-opened as of last week and is slowly being filled up with some of my handmade items.

If nothing else, I need to make some space as our tiny flat is slowly being over-run with my creative makes - and also hubbies artwork, some of which may also make its way into the shop if I can persuade him to part with it!!

Anyhow, I would be grateful if you would pop over and have a look at the shop and let me know what you think. It's been 8 years since I set it up and things have changed a bit over there regarding the listing of stuff and I want to make sure the shop looks nice so any feedback is welcome.

You can find the shop here and make sure you also check out some of the other lovely stuff listed on there. Never amazes me the talent that some people have.

As I said there will be lots more goodies added but for now I am eagerly awaiting my first sale.

Animal Free Research UK

As some of you may know I have been donating items to Animal free Research UK - formerly know as Dr Hadwen Trust - for them to sell in their 2 charity shops in Hitchen and Hove.

I have sent several boxes of handmade goodies to both shops over the past year or so but learnt recently that they have made the decision to close both shops.

Obviously they have to make best use of the funds they have and I guess in the current financial climate and the cost of shop rentals it was a hard decision to make.

You can see details of some of the items we have donated to them on our website
