Sethsgran - the wooden block snowmen are lovely - very modern.
Scottishchick27 - excellent little wooden boxes - i was looking for some of those to give to my flowergirls, i was gonna paint them myself - must keep an eye out to see if seller gets small boxes back in stock - they are an excellent price to.

Right, i've been busy doing some crafts, will pop up some photos - hopefully they will work as its the first time i've done this....


felt brooches and keyrings


Lavendar candles


Foodie signs


School signs

[STRIKE]aaaarrgh - sorry my photos are massivvvveeee.how can i make them smaller. - i went to edit, and clicked on it, and the little boxes came up around the picture, so i clicked on the right hand bottom corner and tried to drag it to make it smaller - but it doesnt seem to work any hints??[/STRIKE]

EDIT -- i have found out how to do it - i just change the pic sizes on photobucket - may take me a few mins tho......

phew - all done - small panic aside. thought i was going to take up the entire post page with my pics !!


well my pics are of some stuff i have made for xms an some bits i made for a friends coffee morning.
working away on xmas stuff, so will post more pics when i have more things ready!!

Love the signs clareyPINKfairy. Do you sell them? If not you should do - I bought one in a similar style on eBay a while back for my MIL - she loved it.

OMG Just spent hours traipsing around the poundshops looking for scrapbooking kits for my daughter......Went to five in total and eventually got what I was looking for in the last one, Well it wasn't really what I wanted but it'll do for now

I did get bits and bobs tho....

bag of Mint imperials for snowman poop
6 small glass jar with lids - pack of 3 for £1
pack of wooden pegs - to decorate for peg holders. Where's best to get for magnets for these???
Pack of seashells - Not sure yet, maybe decorate a frame or something

I wanted the paper frames that have different sized pushout centres for putting around photos usually found in scrapbook kits, I got loads of things like this last year from the pound shop but can't find them this time around.

I did go into Millers and hobbycraft and they had what I was looking for but at £5 plus, one pack was £7.99 and it was more or less the same as the one's I used to get from £shop

Thank you Whoopidoo. i will be selling them on ebay. I've only really just made the bulk of them for my friends sale.
i made school signs last year for my wee ones that went to school, and i really enjoyed it, so i thought i'd make some for lil nephews and neice who started school this year. Then my friend told me she was having a coffee morning and sale, so i thought i'd make some more signs. i sold quite a few, but i've got a few left, so they'll be going on ebay, along with the felt brooches/keyrings, and lavendar candles. should get them on now, so i dont have to be rushing around near xmas!!
