Now with purse tightening all round and people not spending on luxuries etc it seems to reflect on us personally and we don't feel the love. I have looked through your work and it is AMAZING - so colourful and vibrant - so it is NOT you or your work at all - just the downward trend that is affecting all of us. Sales have been very sporadic for a lot of us and unfortunately I joined Folksy just as the downward spiral started!! Typical of me - join something just as its about to slide off the scale.Chrissy Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05637644073652013409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1384045134096537205.post-6063470821030890742011-06-16T19:29:52.465+01:002011-06-16T19:29:52.465+01:00Thanks for that folks.
Paul - I might as well be ...Thanks for that folks.<br /><br />Paul - I might as well be drawing with a crayon in my teeth when I'm feeling this way out! Nothing's any good and I hate everything. I'm happy ot say I'm feeling a lot brighter now :-)<br /><br />I do need some help with promotiing my work and getting it seen. I'm clueless. That's probably something I should be looking into about now really.Umbel Handmade Maniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17645946732993473634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1384045134096537205.post-44341300104168257502011-06-16T13:22:07.971+01:002011-06-16T13:22:07.971+01:00Don't worry Jools. As you said 'these thin...Don't worry Jools. As you said 'these thing happen…'. We've all been there! Also, I guess you're not just judging your 'success' by sales, but if you are, all I can say, from a personal perspective, is that my on-line viewings (folksy, flickr etc.) are down, thus the on-line sales are down (actually… non-existent)! We're all in the doldrums. Sales are no real reflection on ability – your work is excellent. Perhaps, you should look at other avenues for promoting your work?PaulBaileyArthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02225158477399139387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1384045134096537205.post-30645180618494325852011-06-16T13:20:52.726+01:002011-06-16T13:20:52.726+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.PaulBaileyArthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02225158477399139387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1384045134096537205.post-44876986345401625012011-06-16T09:33:02.500+01:002011-06-16T09:33:02.500+01:00Sorry that you are feeling low, your work is amaz...Sorry that you are feeling low, your work is amazing, I know me saying that wont make any difference, you just have to ride it through and soon you will feel more confident.
