Thanks anyway ladies - at least I know its not just me lol. I might try instead of one bent in half and twist the other round, use 2 whole pipe cleaners each bent in half and one part straight up and the other bent round or manipulated to look like antlers one on each side if they are not too fat to fit down the middle (does that make sense??).

I have just bought these bricks from ELC for my grandaughter, she is 19 month old. They are gorgeous. My daughter in US is cutting some white vinyl shapes of crowns, princesses, flowers, hearts, stars, wands etc, the word princess and then her name. I am then going to embellish the bricks with the vinyl so that as she builds her princess castle she will have all the decorated blocks she needs. We aren't decorating them all but just enough for her to be able to make believe. There are 100 blocks in the box and the bag is so sweet also.

My sock snowman kit is going to be featured in an online magazine called http://www.modernhandmadechild.com/ It's a fairly new magazine and has only been going for a few months I think. Received a message from the editor of the decor section asking if she could use my sock snowmen picture for a feature she is doing on handmade christmas decorations. It will be in the November issue all being well. Ooh err missus!!!

To "Fiddle Fart" - found your blog via this forum and would also like to add my thanks - you have made some lovely things. Made 2 of your "count down" calendars and even hubbie said they were good. Didn't have blue card to used to Xmas green instead and still looked Ok - not as good as yours.
