January Sale at Bags of Swank and update

Hope everyone is enjoying the snow! Bailey is :)

Just a quick update to let you know there is a January Sale on at my Etsy shop (link on the left there) many of the items will not be relisted to make way for future new stock and ideas.

I am also starting a new creative blog which is a bit 'more me' than this one and the health one - its about my Art ventures and new projects. That can be found here I hope to make a start on it today with my first post. I have only done the 'about me' page so far, the camera is at the ready to make a start.. Also the iron is warming up for new fabrics too but first is local retail shops not the Etsy shop.. that's next on the list.

Folksy Friday goes Psychedelic

Yes, I know its not Friday yet - but here is me being very early for once. As mentioned in my last entry I have a 3 day show at the Southport Town and Country Fair, setting up tomorrow and there till Monday night. Not for Bags of Swank but for Woof Beginnings to raise funds for needy dogs.

So, this weeks Psychedelic Folksy Friday is a wee bit early.

To begin is BooBooCraft with this wonderful Make up/Cosmetics Bag



I have selected 2 from NofkantsCurios as the first item, which is the ACEO all proceeds go towards the Japan Appeal. The second of Natalies items I like a lot, I know its warm outside now, but just how long will that last?





From The Cats Whiskers Jewellery is a cute Russian doll named Ruth, can also be made into a brooch




Little Denim shows off this seriously cute Baby Bib and slippers



This super chunky bracelet from Lou Lou's Luxuries is due to end on Saturday, so you better be quick before someone else snaps it up




Laura Faye Crafts features this superb bright necklace with great psychedelic buttons.



Last but not least from me here at Bags of Swank by SimJaTa, one tote bag for the cycle person and one great bright messenger bag






Dont forget now, all you need to do is simply click on the pictures above to be taken to the talented crafters Folksy shop for further details of the item shown, and to enjoy a browse around the shop at the rest of the items on offer.
