Folksy Buy & Replace!

Now closed! But please pop over to its new home and join in there! http://craft-carousel.blogspot.com/



Its treasury time! Over on etsy they have buy  replace treasuries, Well we may not have actual treasuries on folksy but that doesn't mean we cant have a buy and  replace!

Heres how it works - Buy any item from a featured shop and then you will replace it in the treasury with a item from your shop. You don't have to buy the featured item shown here, just something from one of the featured shops.  If you buy something let me know and tell me which of your products you would like in its place, And if your not a seller and want to join in? Well why not nominate one of your favourite shops!


Im going to run this for a week and see how it goes!


Feel free to tell people about this, Tweet, Facebook.....

    That's a cool idea - I'm off to retweet it. I've already had a crafty spend this evening so can't justify a double indulgence. Good luck though. x
