Crafty Folk Delights #Etsy

Think we`ll have a Crafty Folk blog today. For those that don`t know it`s the daily listing club on Etsy for UK sellers. They are a wonderful bunch of people, very helpful and supportive and I love being part of the group.
I try and do a blog showing some of their listings to do my bit on the promotional front. I do of course look through and do some tweeting and pinning each day, but this is an extra.
Pinterest seems to have suddenly taken off. I`ve been a participant for quite a while although have tended to pin items on my boards a bit sporadically. In the last couple of months or so there seems to have been a real surge of interest. Every time I have a pinning session there is a mad flurry of pins and repins, not to mention all the likes and new followers. Amazing!!
I am doing these blogs in advance due to my daughters wedding. As today is now Sunday it will be all over and I expect a good time will have been had by all. I will tell you more about it all tomorrow.
For today though it will still be socialising time and quite a few of us are going out to lunch for a carvery, yummy and saves cooking. What can be better. Great company, fabulous food and no cooking. Woo Hoo.
Anyway, I`d better get on with it and find some fabulous creations to put on here and do a rhyme of some sort.
If there are any blaring mistakes in any of the blogs of the last few days, apologies in advance.
As usual, to see a bigger picture or a description, just click on the item to view it in the shop.
ENJOY!!!

I wrote this a few days ago:

Oh dear me the wedding is nigh
will we be caught on the fly.
Is everything done will it go well?
Until the day we can`t really tell.
Yes we can we really know
that come the day it will all flow
just the way it should
and everything will be good.
The bride will be a vision in white
oh such a glorious sight.
She`ll glow as only brides do
marvelling at how the time flew.

and here it is over already:

The wedding is over, it`s time to move on
I cannot believe how fast it has gone.
Time to relax, the day is done
but one and all really had fun.
In a way it`s very sad
but in a way also glad.
My baby is now a wife
starting on her new life.
Together they`ll forge ties,
learn a lot and become wise
about many things and they`ll come to know,
as they they chart the river of marriage`s flow
that it won`t always be easy and calm
but the lows will make the highs like balm.
Together they`ll make a life of their own
from the seeds they`ve already sown!!
