Loons Golden Blog!

Gold medal position, the June Loon Race has come to the end of the month! I can't believe we have completed the challenge to list an item a day in our Folksy shops. for the whole of June!

Some mad fools listed more than one item a day and some were ‘limp’ along loons, listing as and when they could, but still taking part in a physical and mental challenge of listing throughout June!

The madness continues into July, when the July Jesters will get underway!

The Loons have had differing degrees of success! Some have been super sellers with phenomenal sales and some have had more moderate sales. Personally, it has been the best month for me ever, with 15 sales this month! Whoopee! That equates to one every other day! I just find that amazing!

We have been posting our sales tally in the daily Folksy Forum thread, to spur ourselves on, so we can all celebrate with those making sales, but I’m sure Liz will not mind me mentioning that she made a fantabulous 100 sales in June.
She is our Loon Queen, all hail Liz!

Having a quick count up, it looks like 43 differing June Loons Shops had sales in June!
That is just wonderful!

June Loon Gold Treasury!

I would love to show you something from everyone, but there really would not be space, so am just going to show a double sized treasury from throughout June Loons, of items that are still for sale. Please just click on the picture to be taken to their shops for full details.

Personal Mini Treasury!

As a little treat to myself today, I listed two items, but one sold this morning! A little display fossil within a rock matrix bearing lots of fossil fragments. Therefore today, I am going to give a mini treasury of some of my personal favourite listings during June that are still available.

  14. Thanks for including one of my necklaces in your treaury. I don't mind you mentioning my sales at all, but I could not have done it without the friendship and support of the folksy folk, especially the June Loons. Thank-you so much for keeping us all in check, Natlaie.
