#July Jewels #Handmade #Folksy

Time for a tribute to the July Jewels methinks. For those that don`t know, this is this month`s name for the daily listing club on Folksy. It`s a personal challenge to list an item each day in their Folksy shop. Those taking part support each other and help promote each others products. It`s a great idea and I have loved being a part of it for the last 10 months. I`m just taking 2 months off for some intensive crafting time to prepare for the winter season.
No don`t groan at the thought, although I can`t say I blame you, I would have done too a year ago. Now I realise that being prepared and having lots of creations ready to list will make life a little easier in the coming months. I have also realised that the right light, preferably daylight, makes a lot of difference too. So I will be trying to get as many of my creations photographed before the summer is over.
Although looking out of my window and considering that I am sitting here with a thick cardigan and socks with my jeans, I`d say it`s a bit far away at the minute. But you know our great British weather it can all change in an instant, so here`s hoping it returns quicksmart.
As ever, to see a bigger picture or a description, just click on the item to be taken to the shop.

Seasons they all come and go
in keeping with nature`s flow.
Spring is the time for budding
we hope there is no flooding.
Summer comes with leafy green
a wonderful sight to be see.
Autumn is a time for preparing
as we wonder how we`ll be faring,
through the winter`s dark and cold
bringing all family into the fold.
Gathering around the fire
hoping it won`t be too dire.
Glad when spring re-appears
and we can put aside our fears.
But for now, come back summer
cold and grey is a bummer.
All I want is warmth and sun
then my whingeing will be done!
