Folksy Fooler Parade!

Foolish Madness to list an item a Day!
When RedBirdJewellery came up with the idea for a list an item a day challenge, little did we know how much fun it would be!
The idea was to see if the challenge which was in essence a market research tool, would make any difference to levels of view and of course sales for the artisans and crafters taking part.
Some had large sales, some like myself only one, and some none at all. I noted a large increase in views, yet some felt their views were much the same as in previous months. I can only talk of my own experience, if nothing else, it was a very enjoyable challenge and I now feel like an established member of the Folksy community and family!
Below are the shops that had sales and some of the items still available in the Folksy Shops!

Well done to all the Folksy Foolers whether we had sales or not, I hope we all gained something from the challenge, even if it was only comradeship, or in my case comradeshop, as I found some things difficult to resist!
