Purple Passion #Handmade #Folksy

Saw a thread about purple on Folksy and realised it`s been a long time since I did purple on here. Purple makes me feel good and it`s a favorite colour of mine. Seems to be the favourite of a lot of people. I notice that purple never seems to saty long in my shop. I never seem to have many purple items for sale. Hmm.... Bit of a light bulb moment there... maybe... just maybe I should make more purple creations. I think other sellers have the same problem. Reading through the thread, lots of them couldn`t believe how little they had in purple and yet all said it was a favourite colour. Now is that strange or what??
I can feel a purple phase coming on.
Now this is all done picture wise I can`t stop gazing at it. Al those glorious shades of purple. All together like this they are fascinating. Well to me anyway.
Was a busy person yesterday. Got lot`s of things done. A few errands and then it was busy making. Two things done that just need finishing and another that is finished completely. Got some videos done for the website too. The initial tutorial wasn`t that good so I did another. Also got the second one done, the third was already in place and I got the fourth done too. They are all uploaded now for anyone who wants to learn crochet. I will be doing a few more on fancier things, how to make a basic flower and some other stitches too. The fourth video shows how to make ringlets, will be doing another of those too with different yarn to show it better.
All in all I was quite pleased with my days work.
I got wet and hubby got absolutely soaked getting our grandson from school. That really took me back in time to when my girls were young. It always seemed to rain when I was taking them to school or when it was time to pick up from school. Don`t mock... Other parents said the same.
My daughter said she was glad it was Tuesday when I always pick him up, saved her a soaking.
As ever, to see a bigger picture or a description, just click on the item to view it in the shop.
Have FUN and ENJOY!!

Purple is a passion of mine
I think it`s very fine.
My garden has lots in flower
it certainly is purple power.
It looks gorgeous in bloom
I like to give it lot`s of room.
For so many purple is a passion,
it never seems to go out of fashion.
So many shades from which to choose
with this colour you just can`t lose.
Maybe something for your hair
I don`t advise that you share.
That`s because it might not come back
and then it`s something you would lack.
What about a bag or a brooch
careful, someone might poach.
Have a picture for your wall
whatever you like, it`s your call.
You could go for lilac or mauve
any shade is a treasure trove.
Purple jewellery is a real treasure
browse for some at your leisure.
Lot`s on here for you to view
because they are made just for you!!

  4. Another very nice blog Linda. The purple items are gorgeous. You are right there are lots of great shops on Folksy that just seem to get missed. The Blogs all help to bring Folksy items to people's attention.
