Baby it's cold online - an ice cold Folksy Friday

Right then, morning all.  Hands up if you've got three layers on, plus scarf, hat, and hot water bottle (or cat, used as such)!
Good, that's most of us then.

In celebration of this unusually cold end to November, I asked the good people of Folksy to show me what wintry, icy items they had in their shops. And they delivered....

First off, a couple of literal snowflakes:

Bespoke Cards has these cute cupcake wraps:


While 100 per cent delicate has some you can stick on your wall:


Ellie's Treasures provided this fluffy little horse, which is just so quirky.  I love that it comes with a book of 'likes', and really appeals to the grown-up who sort of still wants to play My Little Pony... that's not me, of course, absolutely not:

Then we have a boa from the Crafty Bride for the freezing cold glamour puss....


...who may also be a fan of this sparkly, Olympic-inspired (!), Snow Queen's delight:

I really love that one. It's sort of fairytale-y.

Then there are the cold-looking snowy things that will help to keep you and yours warm.  I love these little booties from NOfkantsCurious - restrained and tasteful fluffiness:


And from Ginger Nut this simple but beautiful pompom hat.  It reminds me of a snowflake too :)


And finally... I nearly forgot my own little goodies, which started this, a whole set of icy items:
Visit the Fat Cat's shop on Folksy!

That's all folks.  You can go back under the duvet now.

  4. Just want to apologise that I've not managed to put clickable links on here yet to take people directly into shops. Sorry, didn't realise :(

    Also I just notice that I was so caught up with gushing about the Snow Queen necklace I forgot to mention whose shop it came from! That would be April is Forever. Sorry Sarah!

  8. Hi there, thanks for the lovely comment, I was going to try to attach the actual music to the Christmas song, but when I read the instructions about 'how to' decided to give that a miss.
    Love your wintry Folksy choices, some super things there.
