Hi everyone, sorry I've not been about lately - am working like crazy to increase my stock for craft fairs throughout the summer.
I really need to do at least 2 HHCs this morning though, so thought I'd see if anyone is doing one soon!"Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."
