F is for.....Frustrating Folksy by Fourteen Candles

I'm sorry, but I have to start this post with AAAARRRRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!

I still haven't had a sale on Folksy - despite hundreds of views on each of my items and some people marking my items as favourites.

Starting to feel a bit like: STOPING FAVOURITING MY ITEMS AND BUY SOMETHING!!!

I know that's the wrong attitude to have, and I am really pleased that people like my candles, but I really need a sale to keep positive!

Moan over. Feel much better now!

Until next time :)

Its been a while since my last post...

Ok, I haven't posted a blog since the new year, which is shocking. Since then, loads has happened.

I have had my first sale on my website (www.fourteencandles.com in case you have forgotten!) woohoo! Very please with that!

Also, my facebook followers has risen dramatically - now on 118 and having regular interaction with the fans which is fab.

Another positive is that although I havent sold anything through my Folksy shop, I have at least made loads of contacts and have thoroughly enjoyed being part of Folksy. Just need to get a sale on there now!

Candle making is going well too - I have started using container wax which is amazing and making my candles look much more professional. Really pleased with my work at the moment. Things are looking good. I also have some new scents that are brilliant and very pleased with - Gardenia and Banana. Both truely heavenly.

Thanks for reading my update, I promise I wont leave it so long next time!
