    Does anyone know where I can get nappy pins at a good price I've seen them in boots £1.08 for 6 just having trouble getting blankets and towels to stay fixed and think these would help.
    Dawnylou I like your cake I think changing the blue socks to neutral ones to match the rest of it might help though :)
