New Nappy Cake

angelkay

i made some cupcakes with paper flowers i think were called tea roses ?
i think they might be too big or too sticky up i got 144 of them for £4.80 so work out at 3.5p each is that expensive compared to what everyone else uses? they have a stem on them that i threaded thru the middle of the 'cake' to keep in in place

Where does everyone else get there's from?

I saw the teddies from Mama and Papa's - they were lovely but at £6 went over my budget of £3.50/soft toy. If I was looking for a toy for a friend I'd definately get one of those - did you see the ones with the photo frames too.

Which Tesco's do you go in for your soft toys - my mum works at the one in Longton and neither me or her could find any, we must just both be blind..

Wilko's have just started selling WTP soft toys and Asda have a yellow WTP Cuddle Robe for £5.

The one i got yesterday was the one like the one with the photo frame (that was £6 with the frame) but it holds a comfort blanket and this was £4.50, and i also got a dog one and that cost £4.I loved the really soft white ones they had but they was £9.


Just this second been to Hanley Tesco and they have a decent selection ranging from £2.50 (reduced) upto £5. They was in there toy aisle. Primark today had alot of nice ones in to, cats dogs monkeys cows bears, and those was £4 and £5, but was much larger than Tescos. Tesco also had lots of white socks


Poundland had bottles, hair brushes and a few other bits i have forgotten in WTP, and Tesco had a lovely soft hooded blanket with roo on, and some other roo items, clothes and the likes.I also had 12 baby blue silicone cases, think they also had pink and orange.
