Misleading "Search" button
Last year a shop which wanted to sell my items decided not to do so because they couldn't find my shop on Folksy. They presumably thought that my business card could not be trusted and therefore neither could I!
It appears that this is because the search box does not make it clear that you can change it from searching for items to searching for shops.
I doubt if I am alone in this experience and of all the websites I use Folksy has the least user-friendly search box.
My experience of human nature is that very few people persevere to find information if it is not presented to them immediately. We live in an instant results world after all.

No, I've had this problem too, trying to find my own shop!
