Crafting for Christmas 2009, let's begin again.......

Gosh, I'm thankful that I can't sew, knit or cross-stitch after reading all your needle horror stories!

My obsession with Poundland continues, I went in there today to get two things and came out with 12!

Things to let you know about...

For baking hampers they have a set of two whisks and for kids baking kits, large brightly coloured plastic bowls.

For coffee themed hampers they have coffee flavoured eclairs and a cream coloured mug and in beige writing it says “coffee addict”.

For a tea lover’s or afternoon tea hamper they have a tea bag squeezer, shortbread, Cadbury’s hot chocolate and a tub of Tetley tea bags.

They also have a pack of 25 sheets of tissue paper in every colour of the rainbow.

oh i will be needing tissue paper for a few gifts me thinks - will have to go and have a look. I like wrapping gifts in it with proper ribbon around it too - might do all my gifts wrapped like that this year so should start saving for it now i think. .

You could turn these into a fun advent calendar.
