irishgirl - what a brilliant countdown calendar........:T

Not done a lot today..............OH had really bad night so went back to GP's this morning......hes got more antibiotics and painkillers so hopefully that will help and we'll both get a nights sleep tonight.
Did bit of shopping........got my robins at last so when I got home had a go at putting it all together...........oh dear, how fiddly..........the pots were so small and the perspex to cover the top of the pot just wouldn't stay put just wedged. So, in the end had to use glue dots around the edge, put a couple of holes in it for the robin and a bit of holly then wrapped them in cellophane with a ribbon round the top........one of those thin curly ones. I'd printed some labels off a site I found and just wrote Robin Redbreasts Christmas Breakfast on them..........only got two done, one for son and one for his girlfriend..............hope they stay intact and the birdseed doesn't spill all over the inside of their boxes.............:rotfl:
Oh, and found an old brown and cream glove, cut the fingers off and thats now a hat for the gravy tub owl for my friend...........got some fair trade choccys this morning for the owl poo............:rotfl:

not sure yet, as I do sell things only to fund my craft gadgets! as the first one took me so long and I nearly threw my BIA out of the window! but now I have written down dimensions etc I am going to give it another go later for my DD1 "shopping days 'till Christmas and see how I get on with that one timewise IFYKWIM
