Folksy seller Amanda has kindly included my lavender sachet in this lovely selection of items for sale.

At this time of year, a little bit of planning and budgeting goes a long way and a visit to the FoIksy website will make it easier and a whole lot more fun! The FoIksy makers have got it covered already, with thousands of beautiful hand crafted gift ideas which can be delivered to your door ready to delight your loved ones. Here's just a small selection, Iinks will be below.

Love this shop early for Christmas board from fellow Folksy seller Lynn.

The Folksy Shop Early Event - Textile Edit Take Two

More lovely textile creations from sellers taking part in the month-long online 'Shop Early for Christmas' event. Why buy mass-produced tat or cheap knockoffs from Temu when you can have the genuine handmade article that will last for years?

Today's lovelies are by Kindred Makes, , , Yorkshire Hare Crafts, , Cariad In Stitches, May Makes and and Berry Textile Art. I've linked to each item in the comments ;)

Merry (early) Christmas!

The buttons I put on my bootees are quite often the selling point and I am often on the lookout for something quirky and cute. These frogs were in a bundle of buttons I recently bought from The Crafty Curio Shop who has a shop on folksy.com and I think they are so cute!

Another selection from the 'not too late' event over on Folksy.com. You can still have all these in time for Xmas. (You also have two days left to order your dream spoon from LooneySpoons before I shut tomorrow night ;))

Lovely work by Pocketful Creations, The Crafty Curio Shop, Myosotis Jewellery, JOYSOFGLASS, The Underground Forest, Adorn Ceramics and KariArt - Kathryn Anne Rowe Illustrations. Why not make one or more of these independent makers very happy with a last-minute purchase?
