  1. Would be great to have a "click & collect " option for local buyers

    Buyers could save postage and could also meet face to face (masked of course!)

  2. A sub category in the jewellery section for gift sets/ jewellery sets

    I have made a number of matching gift sets containing more than one item i.e. earrings and a pendant. Sometimes a bracelet too.

    As it currently stands when I add them to Folksy I list them under pendant/necklaces and then add my own shop collection, but if a customer is browsing Folksy home page (rather than navigating an individual shop) would it be a fair option to have a ‘gift set’ option in the jewellery menu?

    Apologies if this has been asked before. The first time I posted the suggestion I accidentally hit the back button.

  3. Videos for listings please

    Not sure if this has been suggested before but a video of our listings would be so useful.
    I find using videos on Instagram produces more interest and really highlights my work as well as photos. So it would be great to have this option

  4. Searchable Orders

    Sometimes I want to be able to look back at an order so the ability to search would be useful. Perhaps see if a customer has ordered from me before. Orders don’t seem to stay chronological either which doesn’t help.

  6. Make colour tags searchable

    I was surprised to find that colour tags aren't searchable when you're using the search bar - which I think will be how most people use the site. Could they be made searchable the same way ordinary tags are? Sometimes there is more than one way to describe a colour and it looks odd if the description is peppered with alternative colour names - the tags are surely a better place.

  8. Sub category under bracelets & bangles for jewellery

    My jewellery is all made using crystals. Currently for my earrings & necklaces I have the option of "gemstones" as a subcategory but gemstones doesn't appear under bracelets & bangles, so I have to list them as "beaded".
    If we can have gemstones under necklaces, pendants & earrings, can we have gemstones under bracelets & bangles please

  9. Add a section for Unisex jewellery

    Currently I have to decide whether to list some items as mens jewellery versus large sized womens jewellery where it is in fact suitable for both. Would be good to be able to list it as unisex.

  11. Use crowd funding to start advertising campaign

    I'm new to folksy, I have just subscribed to a plus account. I deliberated over it quite a bit because of Folksy's poor general exposure compared to some of its rivals. I get it you don't want to sell your soul to the devil, but that excuse only gets you so far. If you conduct yourself ethically then whats the problem with increased traffic, sales, exposure. I also get the catch 22, No bucks No Buck Rogers! So if the Folksy community gets it, then they won't mind if you ask them to help and use crowd funding to fuel…

  15. gemstone option for bracelets

    There is currently no 'gemstone' category when listing bracelets however there is for other jewellery items. Suggest this is added.

  16. Request customer mobile phone number at checkout

    Many (most?) couriers require a phone number as well as an email address for deliveries but Folksy does not ask customers to provide a phone number. In order to place an order with the courier I usually use my own mobile phone number. This means the customer does not receive parcel tracking text messages. Also, occasionally a courier may have trouble locating a property and if they have a phone number they will call the customer. I think is would be useful if Folksy requested (not required) a mobile phone number at checkout.Interested to know if others agree.

  17. An improved description for the Scotland gift guide

    Suggest making it more arts and crafts focused - current description is quite stereotypical and patronising and misses the opportunity to highlight a strong craft tradition.

  19. Keep sold items visible in shop but mark as ‘sold’

    I make repeats of my birds and when they sell out and therefore disappear from my shop, customers get irritated because they look for an item and can’t find it. They don’t see the ‘sold items’ link. If the products were still visible in my shop but marked ‘sold out’ at least they can see all the details, price, size etc, and that is was available but now sold. Hope this makes sense 😃
