    Hi, how do you get to use the shining stars website? or am i on the wrong one? shiningstars.com

    thanks kelly

    when you get a teddybear it has a code on it enter the code and your bear comes to life as a vertual bear and you then can name a star and print confirmation out with a map of the constellations and your star where abouts it is.

    Hi girls
    Not been on here for ages but still making cakes. Thought I would post my latest one.

    I've been asking on a couple of boards where to get double walled "tall" boxes from, to post cakes in.
    They need to be 30 x 30 x (at least) 80 cm high. It's the height I am having trouble with - seems the higher the box, the bigger the base is. Found some "possibles" but they wanted over a fiver each.

    If anyone can help I would be really gratefull!

    Also, does anyone get the boxes (the other way) where you would have to put the cakes in sidewards instead of from the top? I just thought if you had to tape up the side, it wouldn't be as strong.

    Sorry for waffling on!!!

    Thanks girls
    Lizalloareds, to fold sleepsuit, lay it flat with back facing and bring feet up to just below shoulders, then fold front (chest )back onto this. Just 2 folds.

    snookles,
    I,m afraid you can't get the lion anymore. It was from Asda (George babywear section) I got 2 last yr. Thought they were dear at the time at £3.50, wish I had got more.

    Moonpenny - gorgeous cake love the lion! you always manage to get your cakes looking soooo neat!! Have pm'd you about the boxes! :D

    Busy with cakes at the moment - have had the most orders at one time over the last week or so - made up two last week and got 4 more to do!! Actually after a bit of advice - can anyone recommend where to buy 'funky/trendy' baby bits - its just that I've had an order for a cake for a funky trendy snowboarding couple!! The only thing I've thought of so far is those 'kerchief' style bibs as they're very trendy and also snowboarders actually where something similar! it needs to be neutral!!! any suggestions welcome please! :)

    Have sent you a PM.

    You have your work cut out with the "snowboarding" order. if you wanted to "theme" it, the only thing I coud think of was "Pingu" on a hand made snowboard.
    I think I would do a black/white theme rather than the creams. If you could get some snazzy kerchief bibs, you coud drape it round the top tier.
    The only other toys I could think of were the Jellycat - Skiddadles - I think they're called but quite expensive. Sort of stripy giraffe/horse type with long legs. Very funky!
    Mind you! Alot of trendies really like the very baby stuff. You never can tell!

    Your cakes are fabulous!
