Folksy Valentinos! Week One

I know, I know...no blog posts for ages then three in as many days. There's more on the way too in my head at least. I'm so behind, sorry!

We are now one week into the February daily listing club over on Folksy. This month called 'The Valentinos'. I have been part of the daily listing club since June last year (although I did step back from it in Jan). As such I have quite a few items delisting so with the exeption of today, all my listings have been relists. Here's a couple of my favourites plus today's brand new resin heart pendant.

And three favourites each day from other Valentinos. As usual, click on the pics to be taken to the sellers' shops to find out more.

Wedding Giveaway

Have you heard about the massive wedding giveaway going on over at Inspired Celebration? If you are getting married this year or know someone who is then its well worth you entering. Several Folksy designers (me included) have gotten together and are offering 20 different goodies worth over £500 for you to use on your upcoming big day.

These are the earrings that I am offering as part of the giveaway. They are made from sterling silver and 6mm freshwater pearls. The silver drops have been hammered to texture them and highly polished. The total drop of the earrings is 7.5cm (3 inches).

Pop over to enter and to find out more details about the other items on offer and the T&Cs for the competition- closing date is Valentines Day.

Oh and if you really want a pair of these but dont win them in the giveaway then get in touch and I can make you a pair!

Ummm....Happy New Year! Plus Secret Santa goodies

Hello lovely blog readers. I have been a very bad blogger and missed January entirely. Hope you all had a great Christmas and New Year and January.  I accidentally started 2011 by deleting my last post of 2010. Whoops! Blame it on the seasonal lurgy.

Due to the affore mentioned lurgy and bit of mojo loss and internet loss due to broken router, I took a little break from listing daily on Folksy and hid under a rock for a bit. Feeling much better now though and have rejoined the madness of the Valentinos!

Also, back in Decemeber, I joined in with Secret Santa over on Crafteroo. I was a bit rushed mid December so forgot to photograph what I sent to Claire but she blogged here if you'd like to see.

I was very lucky to have Jane of Hooked Yarn as my Secret Santa. Look at all the wonderful goodies she sent me!

The scarflet and mitts are very warm and cosy, plus the flower is detachable so I can wear it in the summer too. Jane also sent me some cute little hands, feet and face in an old tin along with some old sewing snaps. She also sent me some tumbled gemstones and some chocolate. And look at the cute card. Its based on a drawing her son did a few years ago. So cute!! Thank you so much Jane. Love all the bits and pieces and the supplies will be put to good use. The chocolate already has been ;op

December Elves: Days 17 to 19

Well, regular readers of my blog will know, the craft fair that got snowed off in the last batch of snow was on last weekend. It was a disaster and in hindsight I shouldn't have gone. On Friday I looked at the weather report and thought it might be iffy but the organiser said it was still on so I assumed she had better local weather knowledge than me. Hmph. I got stuck on the motorway on the way up due to an accident. Sold nothing- there were very few people through the door as it was very snowy. Left early, had to dig my car out of the road as it was just wheel spinning and to top it all off I slid into a bollard on the drive back to my friend's house. Oh well, never mind. Could have been a lot worse and at least the car still works so I could get back home to Southampton on Sunday.

Meanwhile, the Elves are still going although in smaller numbers. I relisted a few items in advance to keep up. (I am technically one listing ahead but I wont be listing between Christmas and New Year.) Here are 3 of them.

And three favourites each day from other hardworking Elves. As ever, click on the pics to be taken to the sellers' shops to find out more.
