Folksy Friday-A quick trip round Europe

Paris by Night Necklace
Bedecked Beads Folksy Shop
I have reinstated my Folksy shop after an absence and I have remembered this week to feature some of the great craft that you can find on Folksy

The first item is one which I have relisted and I call 'Paris by Night' It features the iconic Eiffel Tower together with ribbon and lace which gives it that 'Oooo la la' factor.

Paris Box- Jewellery/Trinket Box
One artisan/crafty person I really admire is Louise 'Zuzu' Crosbie whose shop is an Aladdins cave of fantabulous goodies. I have also chosen a Parisien theme from Zuzu's shop.This stunning box would be the ideal gift to store your wonderful jewels!
Zuzu's Petals Altered Art 'n' Stuff

I have featured Italy with this next item. this beautiful Merino wool scarf would make a lovely gift. merino wool is renowned for its softeness and warmth.   Pom Pom Knits

Scarf (Merino Wool Extra Fine hand crafted)


What represents Spain best?. It must be the Flamenco..great passion..flair and style.Look at this fantastic flamenco apron. Wear this and you would become a passionate senorita in your own kitchen :-) Flamenca de Gales





This gorgeous little house
brooch has been inspired by Dutch architecture. Take a look at the items offered by 'Hollowbourne' in their Folksy shop



So thank you to the featured shops!
