♥ SewSew ♥





Link: SewSew Folksy Shop

These plushies are so cute!

Featuring one character named Alfie who likes to dress up each day as different people. As you can see from above, you can find him dressed as a dinosaur, a ninja and even Batman's sidekick Robin! I admire how each photo has been shot to capture each personality of Alfie's characters :)

Other plushies to be found such as weather clouds with different personalities and Pies that are Pie-rates!

Fun, humourous and original plushies. Definitely go check the shop out!

♥ Kawaii Boutique ♥


Yes I have blogged about this shop before, and I will continue to blog about Kawaii Boutique as its one of my favourite handmade shops! :)

Since I first blogged about Kawaii Boutique, Sam (the genius behind the store) has added more things to the website! A video page giving you lovely people tutorials on how to make certain things using Polymer Clay. Currently only one video is up which is about making cupcakes. Everyone loves cupcakes! Very useful if you're new to Polymer Clay. Happy Japanese Pop music in the background, so you feel like you're getting your groove on aswell as learning. xD

More beautiful jewellery has been added :) Lots of limited Halloween creations made just for October.. yeah, bit pointless telling you that NOW however, imagine all the goodies she'll make for Christmas!

Also check out the custom items page. :) The penguin necklace is adorable!

Ducky Charms Jewellery Information - For Folksy Customers.

(Please feel free to ignore this if you're after my other entries =p)

The one thing that I dislike about Folksy is that I can't use HTML on the main page and therefore, I can't write about my shop TERMMMZZ. So please, have a read before you buy :) I'm a nice seller! ;D


Days I am able to post: Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, & Fridays. All orders over the weekend will be posted the Following Monday.
I will contact you the date of when I will send it to you or contact if for some reason I can't make it to the post office. (For example, away from home, bank holidays, bad weather conditions, you get the picture ;D)


All orders will be sent FIRST CLASS! And I will obtain a certificate of posting. :) Please allow up to 2-4 days for your item to get to you! The money you pay for P&P goes towards tissue paper, bubblewrap, the jiffy bag AND the actual cost of posting it. So please bear this in mind when leaving feedback.



I accept international buyers! Please check each items listing for P&P cost. Please allow up to 20 days for your items to arrive. Again, I send by first class and will obtain a certificate of postage. Sorry - I do not accept refunds from international buyers at this time.


Please leave feedback once the item has arrived to you in satisfactory condition! I'll then leave feedback for you :) If you're not happy with what was sent (for example, it arrived broken) please e-mail me straight away at chloe.leanne.akers@hotmail.co.uk (More likely to check my e-mails first!) with your Contact Name, Address, Telephone Number AND item name. Please also state the reason for return. I will e-mail you back with my address.
Items must be returned in original packaging and within 7 days of receipt. Once I have received the return item, I will give you a full refund of purchase cost and original postage cost.



I hope that covers everything! Please leave any comments if you want to know anything else. You're always welcome to message me on Folksy or e-mail me. :)

♥ Ducky Charms Jewellery ♥










Hello everyone ! :)

You may or may not know that "Ducky Charms Jewellery" is ran by moi!

I am currently on eBay, however the fees are driving me MAD. My balance is currently at £11 for just this month so far! The irritating part is when you pay fees for items that don't even sell in the end.
So I have decided to open a Folksy account. I was a bit iffy at first, because I had no luck with Etsy. However judging from some of the handmade shops I've looked at, people are having some luck with it! :)

So, I'll be slowly adding items on to my Folksy. You can find me here http://www.folksy.com/shops/duckycharmsjewellery :)

I've only got two Lego Men necklaces for sale at the moment xD But I'm a massive loser this weekend with no plans, so hopefully more stock will be up for sale. :)

Oh and one other thing, if you know me personally you'll know that I've got BAL-LOONY (I stole that joke from Cineworld =p) with balloons at the moment. - http://www.cineworld.co.uk/up?nickname=kawaiiducky - If you follow the link and answer the easy peasy question, you'll give me 10 balloons. I'm entering a competition to go to Disneyland Paris so I'd be very very VERY grateful if you help me! :)

Take care everyone :)

The following was taken from Nelli D's Folksy profile:

"I caught the creative bug as a child and as far as I'm aware there is no cure!
By day I am an art teacher, by night I am a designer!
No stone is left unturned in my quest for the next big Nelli D thing and I attend courses, buy books and learn as much as possible to make my wares better and more exciting ! so check back often to see some newbies....
All of my Nelli D gifts are lovingly made, with buckets of enthusiasm, time and sparkle. Then like a maniac I applique, quilt and embellish everything!"


This shop has the most beautiful handmade bags and clutch purses! I have recently developed an interest to Surface Pattern so as soon as I clicked on the link to the shop; I fell in love! I absolutely adore the floral patterned fabrics used to create these items and they are so very tasteful and elegant! Perfect for any girl who is going for an indie look!


Lots of lovely handmade jewellery too, made out of resin. I really admire the crystal clear resin hearts with something irresistible in the middle such as a gingerbread man! Other necklaces include funky skull and crossbones and pretty unicorns!


Make sure you definitely check out this shop out - lots of beautiful items made from what it seems a very busy and enthusiastic lady!

The following sentence was taken from Dollipops' Twitter profile.

"I handmake beautiful jewellery and hair accessories for prices I would be prepared to pay myself!"

An adorable Folksy shop that has a great mix of silver and elegant as well as plastic and funky!

It has everything; flowers, cute foods (such as donuts, cakes and lollipops) to fairies, ballerinas and angels! Lots of necklaces, bracelets, rings, brooches, hair slides and even head bands!
I truly believe that any girl can look at this shop and fall in love the beautiful items Dollipops has to offer!

Dollipops is UK based and ran by a woman called Lolly. Also a very friendly seller! Her Folksy shop has 100% positive feedback!


Ducky loves "Dollipops"!

Just A Reminder !

I am always looking out for different online stores full of beautiful handmade creations to put in this blog!

I make and sell my own jewellery on eBay (for the time being..) so I know what its like trying to get interest outside your family and friends ! (especially if you are new to this!)

Please leave me a comment on any blog entry or e-mail me at chloe.leanne.akers@hotmail.co.uk a link to your online shop! It could be anywhere; your own website, Etsy, eBay, Folksy etc. :)
And I don't mind what you are selling, aslong as it was made by you! Jewellery, clothing, accessories, art, cuddly toys.

I will take a look and will get back to you once you have been featured. :)

Thank you !

Description taken from website:

"Deelights-jewellery is a UK based online jewellery store
offering handmade necklaces, bracelets and earrings,
silver rings and pandora bracelets, beads and accessories.
Each handmade piece is made using only the best materials
and beads including sterling silver and gemstones."


Not a fan of Plastic jewellery? Try this website! Well-crafted and certainly better than jewellery you would find in high street stores! Also the fact that everyone you know won't be wearing the exact same piece of Jewellery as you! Each piece is unique and is well worth every penny, too. :)

Deelights-Jewellery is based in the UK and is ran by a woman named Leona. (Another one of my favourite Twitterers!) She is extremely friendly and you can find her on blogspot (http://deelightsblog.blogspot.com/) which also has lists of other websites you can find her on such as Etsy, Folksy, Twitter, & Facebook.
