Shopping on Facebook Pages

I've had a page on Facebook for sometime but didn't really start promoting and networking until mid January this year and I am amazed at the  volume of craft, art and accessories community out there and so many with great talent. My news feed is just full of Facebook shops now. 

My favourite pages At the moment and I have bought from are as follows: 


Moo C Jewellery

I have purchased a few items from this lovely shop. I have this bracelet in red, yellow and orange aswell. Also a couple of gifts I have purchased as they are quality at affordable prices.   



Nellie and Babs
This Lovely page puts together children's clothing and turns them into a keepsake piece. I have been a winner of a giveaway from this page and can't wait to see my keepsake using both Ollie and Joel's clothing.

I purchased some crafty supplies one day and got them the next a very efficient speedy. 
Jewellery and accessories page with great offers on every week. I bought a little black bag and wear it constantly.


Stamptastic

Stamptastic
Creates stamps and stickers for your business. Today I received these stickers for my page. Reasonable prices so would use again. 



Blackshoe
This page is absolutely fabulous the lovely lady creates illustrations to your description. I have ordered one for my hubbies birthday of all of us as we love unique and quirky pieces. 

Rachel's One Stop Shop
Children and baby items at really good prices so I have ordered a little treat for my youngest son Joel as Ollie is always being spoilt.


Blue Butterfly  
This page is gorgorous and they have an actual shop that I really must go to. I haven't bought anything yet but I really love the Blue Butterfly mug and coaster. Lovely illustrations of beach huts aswell.






Stitched for you
Great family trees made from felt animals. I asked the lady if she could do a panda one and very quickly sketched her ideas but she has a huge order list and I'm not on it until 2015. Must be fabulous to be that popular. 

Oh and of course I love my page Kelly's Box Crafts and accessories.

At the beginning of the year I was under 100 likes and after a bit of sponsored listings I shot up to 500 around March but after community sharing and liking I am now at 1016 likes I'm utterly amazed. 

Love to know if anyone else has any favourite pages they would like to share.

I have a 3 year old eek!

Can't believe Ollie is now three. 

He had an awful week of sickness and diarrhoea but thankfully he was okay by 16th, his birthday. 
We had a family party and a day trip planned originally but had to cancel it all and just had a simple day out to the park, lunch out and a treat of ice cream. 
He seemed to enjoy his day especially as he got a Spider-Man scooter which he loves. The day followed with more treats with family spoiling him with more presents. 

The changing faces of Ollie. 

Since he has turned three though he has become extremely bossy wanting people to do everything for him and he is constantly saying no and refusing to do anything I say. So its out with the terrible twos and in with the troublesome threes.

Crafts and Accessories


New crafts and accessories have been added to Kelly's Box the last couple of weeks. I would love to see what you think of the products I have on my page.


Today I have added some pretty chiffon scarves that I would actually like to keep as they are so nice especially the Butterfly and Giraffe ones.


I really like making bracelets at the moment and when the sun is out I seem to go bright like this wooden flower button bracelet, it reminds me of spring which I think is a great time of year.

All Button Bracelets are just £4.65 each.

You can find all my handmade creations and new accessories at my facebook page Kelly's Box - https://www.facebook.com/kellyscraftbox and all handmade items can be found on my Etsy shop https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/KellysBox

I Love Pandas

 

My two little boys love pandas they always have to have panda teddy in their beds at night time or if we stay anywhere they are with us. 
My eldest Ollie in particular is very attached to his big panda where Ollie is panda is. Upstairs, downstairs i'm actually surprised he hasnt wanted to take him out to the shops with us.





It's made me love anything panda now. My friend even bought me a panda onesie for my birthday which is great. I love lounging in the evening with it on now because it's so comfortable.


My latest purchase was this Panda face jumber from Asda. I found it in the sale at £8 reduced from £16. I couldn't believe my luck as they only had one and in my size.
I'm always looking out now for anything panda. If you find anything please do share.

Butterfly, Butterfly

I've always loved butterflies my first tattoo was a butterfly and I love going to butterfly farms as it just feels free which makes me happy. 

Back to the clothes I'm loving these dresses 
These tops are fabulous and reminds me of the summer months ahead. All could be teamed with skinny jeans or leggings.
 

I have a few butterfly tops, scarfs and jewellery already but you can never have too many.

I love this bracelet from Lylia Rose so tempted.
