Folksy Friday: 79 shopping days 'til Christmas

So whether we have uttered the words out loud yet or not, most of us are thinking about Christmas shopping.  Why not give gifts that are handmade in the UK this year, and shop on Folksy.

You would be amazed at the amount of talent  there is on this fair island of ours.  There are even gifts for the men...yes not just socks.  Fabulous things, and when you factor in that you can do it from your warm house.  No crowds, and if you want to you could have a glass of mulled wine and a mince pie too ;)


I have decided to take the hard work out of it for you by featuring some really special items I have spotted this week.

A few from me first.

    What a lovely selection! Thank you so much for featuring my Kambamba Jasper pendant. Great for a man as well as a lady. I love Natalies Hat for the same reason and the scarf by the crafty bride, as it is such a wonderful colour!
