Over the weekend I was featured on Claire Laraine’s Partners in Crime blog!
I also sold two pairs of the same earrings, and turned 29 (yesterday) so all in all a busy time, and a definite positive note!
Don’t forget that my 10% promotion is still on until midnight of the 28th and applies to both my Etsy and Folksy stores.
Recently listed on Folksy is this fabulous Herringbone stitch cuff for £30.00. Roughly 6.5″ in length and finished with a gold-filled clasp it would look stunning on all skin tones and with many different coloured outfits.
Also when you purchase it and the co-ordinating earrings you will get a £6 refund via paypal, meaning that you get both items for £34 plus p&p.
Now available from on Folksy http://www.snapdragonbeads.folksy.com/ are two of my Herringbone Stitch Cuffs.
These cuffs are stunning show-stopper pieces, and are shipped in black gift boxes.
Around 6 hours of work goes into each cuff and they each feature a gold-filled toggle clasp and are approximately 6.5″ in length, additional jumprings can be added to increase the length if need be.
Two more just listed items on Folksy for your perusal:
Both pairs are handmade to a pattern of my own design, and I try to may a point of not reproducing a pair exactly. However I am happy to take bulk orders (with a discount) for bridesmaids. Just email me!
Click on an image to take you to the item’s Folksy listing.
In an effort to keep things turning over I’ll be posting up a round up of items recently listed to Folksy and Etsy.
Today there are two pairs of earrings, both now available to purchase via Folksy
Both pieces have sterling silver headpins, beads and ear hooks and feature handmade beads. They have been made in a smoke-free home (I’ve not burnt a meal in years ;-D )
A few weeks back I signed up to Folksy; a UK based site similar in intent to Etsy. And for a while, what with the manic pressures of dealing with a baby, that was pretty much it. However, in fit of pique yesterday afternoon I decided to photograph and list some simple glass bracelets.
And guess my surprise, and delight when one of them sold! Hurrah!
This is the further incentive I need to sort out the work room so I have somewhere to work again, and to get photographing and listing.
Folksy being UK based means that I can price things in pounds which is great!
You can find my store at http://folksy.com/shops/snapdragonbeads
I can’t believe how quickly this year has gone by, and most of it is a blur now, but I think I can attribute much of that to having had a baby in April.
The little one is now 4 months old and all things considered a pretty good baby.
Time has passed so quickly too that my birthday is now uncomfortably close! So to celebrate my last birthday in my 20’s I’m offering 10% off all items in my Etsy store, which as you should all know is at: http://snapdragonbeads.etsy.com/
The 10% will be refunded via paypal. Also don’t forget to pop “Happy Birthday” in the message to seller box, you’ll get the refund without it, but with it you might get something a little extra 
This promotion will be running from then 22nd until the 28th of August.
And more items will be listed before the 22nd!
Am now in recovery mode from Sunday’s fair, which was a lot of fun; made even better by selling enough to cover my costs for the day. Now for the hard part; tidying up the workroom and dining room which has something of the goods in department about it!
This necklace is just one of the many pieces which I will have with me at WeMake on Sunday
There are only a few more days to go until WeMake London which is being held at the Dragon Hall on Stukeley Street, just of Drury Lane.
At the moment my house and I am sure the homes of the other wonderful sellers who will be there is a whirl of activity as we put the finishing touches on our wares.
If you are planning to attend do make sure you are there early - the first 10 people through the door will get a free tote with some goodies!
