One of the things I've really enjoyed about selling on line is getting to "meet" so many wonderful sellers. There's a great sense of community which really came out in the Coriandr Express promotion which we took part in earlier this year. Twenty sellers got together to promote each other for three days at a time. Here's a quick look at what the first five have in their Coriandr shops now.

* Day 7 *

Pirate Panda's big ambition is to join the Pirate Pixie Crew so he can sport one of these natty hats!

It's the captain!

A big welcome aboard the Coriandr Express VIP carriage to the Captain of the enterprise, the driver of the train, the amazing Lynne, creator of the Pirate Pixie Crew and champion of the handmade on her Autonomous Artisans blog.

Lynne has a shop full of everything the discerning pirate of any age might need ... an eyepatch perhaps?

or a swag bag?

Or a whole range of gorgeous hats such as this brightly coloured baby buccaneer hat (with yellow skully).
Every hat comes with a membership card to the Pirate Pixie Crew who are led by the infamous Captain Skulduggery Dug. Read more about them at the Captain's blog and visit Lynne's shop on Coriandr to see more of her wonderful creations. There's 10% off them till 30 June - stop by the Coriandr Express to find out how to claim.
