Francesca Iannaccone
Mrs Eliot Books
Folksy opened up a whole new world for young mum and artist Francesca Iannaccone. She set up Mrs Eliot Books three years ago after realising just how easy it was to get started. Francesca's sold 23 prints this year and relishes being part of such a thriving, online community of 'creative souls'.

Sophia Victoria Joy
Sophia Victoria Joy
Sophia Victoria Joy is one of Folksy’s newest recruits, but she’s already reaping the benefits. She still can’t believe how quickly her shop front has taken shape and how many orders she’s getting. Sophia loves how supportive and polite her customers have been and even looks forward to our regular newsletters. She’s a keeper!

Julia Smith
Julia Smith Ceramics
Julia Smith opened her shop, Julia Smith Ceramics, on Folksy two years ago. Since then she's sold over 500 pots and loves how straightforward it is to list her products. Living in the Scottish Highlands, Julia relies on Folksy as a way to sell her work. Her top tip is to spend time taking beautiful photos.
We promote our designers and makers.
