March Hares Finale on Folksy Friday.

This is a very last March Hares blog for Folksy Friday. I hope you have all enjoyed seeing the fruits of the daily listing club. Throughout April there will be another daily listing club. Quite a few of the names will be the same but there will also be new ones joining too. This of course does make it more interesting as we will see more variety. Although saying that I think we have quite a good amount of diversity in any monthly listing club. For those who have been following for a while I expect you will have noticed lots of changes over the months even with th same shops. There is of course the change now from Winter to Spring items.
I would at this point like to say a very BIG THANK YOU to Natalie of NOFKants Curios for her continued hard work in keeping the listing clubs going. Apparently the first one started in April of last year and has been going ever since, thanks to Natalie. Her tireless work, support and encouragement have kept us all going, even when we flag. The members all support each other too and if we fail to, Natalie gently reminds us to help each other. Folksy has a good community spirit and things like this just make it even better.

So just where did March go?
It vanished in the ebb and flow.
The ebb and flow of a busy life,
full of work and often strife.
We have to make the time for play
even in the rush of a busy day.
Do you take time to smell the roses?
What a welter of thought that poses.
I`m lucky to be doing something great
crafting and painting is a wonderful fate.
If everyone could do what they like best
life in general wouldn`t be such a test.
We`d rise every day eager and bright
knowing that what we do will bring the light
of pleasure and enjoyment in to our lives
in that sort of world everyone thrives.
We crafters devote all our spare moments
to creating and ignore any opponents.
Any that do their best to deride
are only showing their very worst side.
We`ve all come across folk who look down
their noses at our work and frown.
They don`t notice the quality or original design
how beautifully made it is, or how fine.
They`ll pay much more for mass produced stuff
where often, if they look closer, the finish is rough.
We crafters are proud of an exceptional finish
something that time will not diminish.
So buy from Uk crafters for gifts and yourself,
cos their quality won`t leave them stuck on a shelf!
