Lovely to meet you all and welcome to the team. Now I'm off to browse these fine shops and leave some hearts ...!

Clickety click and 'Share the Love' - Ooakie does it again!

Ooakie and her magic fingers have scored ANOTHER treasury. I'm starting to think she never sleeps and just lurks in the treasury waiting to pounce. Amazing stuff!
This theme is Heart and Soul and there are delicious Valentine-themed goodies. You must click, click and have a peek. Thanks again Ooakie for persistence and your hard work!

New shop listing menu

Hello crafty souls, in an attempt to make shopping with us all easier, I've categorised all the shops in the drop down listing over on the right, under the SHOP DIRECTORY heading. I've broadly used the Etsy site categories, with some modifications.

As I was going through all your shops (and they are all just wonderful ... so many beautiful things!) I've realised that lots of you don't fit neatly into just one category. Some of you do a mixture of things but I have tried to slot you in initially as best as I could.

To make if fair on everyone, I suggest that everyone's shop can appear in up to 2 categories in the listing ... so if you would like to be added in somewhere else in the listing please convo me (propeller) via Etsy and I will adjust accordingly.

I will apologise in advance if I have accidentally deleted anyone or totally misrepresented you! And of course if anyone finds bugs or gremlins let me know.

I am now slightly dazed from looking at so many shops so need a cuppa.

Thanks!
Alex
