Hi Debbie, Pink, blue and white socks, I usually buy from Tescos, pack of 5 for £2.50. Asda do them too.
Although I do keep a look out in Peacocks and Ethel Austins, they very often reduce their socks.

Thanks for your replies! Very helpful. Will have to purchase some socks next time I am in Tescos.

hi ladies,

I have just spoke to the lady who orgaises the local craft fayres here - the next one is in november and she has seen my cakes in the chemists window and would be delighted to have me take a stall. stalls are £18 and the fayre runs 10am till 4pm i also get free coffee and cake lol

i haven't made any smaller items yet like cupcakes etc but i plan to practise so i can have a full table. i'm very excited - she was very complimentary on my cakes and its nice to hear that other people like your stuff.
