    Hi guys, I'm after a bit of help please.

    I'm adding small bottles of Shandy/Beer to a few hampers but wanted to make my own Christmas related labels for them but can't think of any good names for them.

    I wanted something like Rudolph's nose warmer :confused: or something maybe snowmen/santa related as well. Any help greatly appreciated.

    Oooh also I wanted to put a list of ingredients on like magic elf dust, any other suggestions for ingredients?

    how about Santa's tipple? will think of some more for you my local always has festive beers on tap so I'll ask them and pinchthe ideas for you.

    How about oats and different colours of edible glitter? that way if you throw it around the garden etc it wont harm the animals that might eat it.

    Sorry I've not been on over the weekend have been very busy and non of it to do with christmas unfortunatly

    Hello you lovely crimbo nuts!

    I have finally sorted, cleaned and done out my kitchen cupboards! OMG i threw away loads! It was amazing. I threw away anything i hadnt used for a year. Couldnt believe it!

    Thank you for the challenge it was really needed in my kitchen.

    I have also taken advantage of some of the deals posted on here in the grabbit it whilst you can threads. Got a lot of toys and toiletries etc for pressies and hampers and saved lots of ££££'s too so am feeling very positive at the mo but still have a bit to do. I havent started on any of my crafts yet tho so will need to start that this weekend i think.

    The other thing i wanted to ask you does anyone know where i can print out Christmas cards for my children to colour in? I was going to buy some from Yellow Moon but they are £2.99 for 12 cards which seems a lot as they are only card and a bit of ink. Simialr to these:

  • Hi Jammy, the first one is my favourite - autumn globe - is it for you! They are all rather lovely though!

    On a different note - does anyone have any links to printable labels that I can print out on paper and then stick to the sweetie and cookie jars?

    I've had a look on microsoft and haven't really found anything but I might have been looking in the wrong place.

    Not been doing much christmas related apart from cleaning out all the kitchen cupboards so they are all neat and tidy and finding a cake recipe or two!
