✨ It's the Folksy Seconds Sunday today! ✨

What is Seconds Sunday?

🎨A second could also be a piece from an older collection or a sample product, made to test out a new idea, material or technique. It could also be something with a slight flaw- Makers have high standards, and if they're anything like me, they see tiny imperfections that others might not even notice!

🎨Selling these pieces as seconds allows the customer to purchase a piece of art or craft at a reduced rate and avoids makers throwing away stock, thereby minimising waste. It also enables customers to buy beautiful pieces no matter their budget.

Visit the Folksy website today to shop the Seconds Sale!
