    Just ploughed through the assortment of 'stuff' in my spare room to do shoebox/hamper for sons girlfriends birthday - can't see the wood for the trees.................couple of things I can't find ............:confused: I know they're there but not quite sure which bag/box/shelf/drawer they are..............lol

    Still, did come across a Snowman Mug I forgot I'd got that'll do for grandsons snowman soup.................lol no need for gravy granules to be gobbled up now..................lol

    Thinking I should have done a bathroom hanger (sons girlfriends stuff is all bath type stuff ) Got three I haven't finished yet........green coloured one, two tone beige (though think I've earmarked that) brown one but thats a bit 'masculine'..................what could I put on a bathroom one ?

    Just to let you know my door hanger 'progress'..............well, nearly there(I think!)
    This morning I covered last door hanger for baby grandson - blue snowflake pattern paper on one side - blue with spots on the other. Snowflake side is having a sticker of santa in a car and a label saying 'Santa Please StopHere'
    other side is having piccy of teddy in jim jams and will say Nap time -might fit in baby grandsons name somewhere...................lol
    Have redone one side of my green one so it's tidier.............not sure what to do with that.
    Brown one is for my son - has fabric pocket and I'll pop in labels that say 'busy napping' - 'me time' or something like that.............on the other side stick letters that say 'Yay, time to play' - he's in his 30's bit what the heck, he's a male and they never really grow up do they.
    Coffee/cream one is for ex foster girl - after her house fire she's had bedroom all done in brown and beige colours and her dressing room leads off that so it'll be for there...................Yippee....................I'm winning !!!!!:T

    (Currently waiting for glue to dry...............)

    Well I finally got the blank door hanger out of the cupboard that I've had for about 4 months, cleaned off the dust and decorated it last night:

    It' a xmas present for my Mum to go with everything else that I am supposed to be making for her. I was lazy and didn't decorate the back, I might do that another time. I didn't like how the circle looked in the middle so I stuck buttons all round it, (handy to do if your cutting wasn't that good like mine was).

    Rainmac I think I'll definately make more now, something else on my list of stuff to buy. I really enjoyed doing it. It took me 2 hours though! I kept changing my mind of what to stick on it.
    Savvy - hope you feel better soon.
