Trolls called merkin- whatever next... actually I don't think I want to know.

That looks like a very good buy Laura- but the most important thing they've missed out is a pair of round nose pliers for loops, get yourself a pair of them , some wire cutters and that kit and you're sorted :-)

Well as February marched into March all talk on the thread of The Smelly Shoe and Sock empire disovled into one big sulk well Sulkie in our case .
The Trash to Cash entrepenuers were continuing with the daily slog of the world of money making ebay,surveys, blogging, bingo and jewellery making. Life was continuing on as it has a way of doing in the land of mse ,love, happiness ,credit card debt ,mortgage arrears, ppi claims.(good luck Cagne)
This was when they made the dicovery of the Merkin sounded to me like this was a mythical nocturnal creature that may spread special money making dust (we are always looking for the special money making dust it can be found in attics,jewelery boxes,garages and it appears to be found in polymer clay).
Well imagine my surprise or maybe not when a linky went up only to find bejewelled lady patches that can be glued to your shaven beaver.Well what fancy beavers they are and they are definitely sprinkled with money dust at £200 a go .
The laughs and jokes were many and made even the sad, unhappy and unwell of us smile as we pondered why the money making fairy decided to sprinkle her dust there, the conclusion was probably to keep the men folk happy or lady gaga .
So heres where we challenged paula to create our polymer money dust sprinkled sulky wearing a pair of smelly shoes including ankle bracelet in sexy pose , a diamante merkin and one of waynes t-shirts stating I'm a fan of Merkins in true facebook style .
Thus our mambury and mabels merkin mascot was born :rotfl:
