    I have just read this thread and wow some amazing stuff here, i would truly be so happy to get something unique for xmas, i always end up with loads of smellies which are lovely but the only thought that has went into them is 'need to get to boots before the 3 for 2 finishes' :-)

    Going to start looking at the blogs now :-)

    esmer - super box and some lovely stuff on your blog :T

    I've had a bit of a :mad: day today............well first part was ok -covered a little 'memo' box (the sort for loose paper) I'd had it a while, two more bought me since then so decided it could go to a new home. That all went ok and I'm pleased with it. So, confidence on the up I thought I'd make a button necklace for foster sons girlfiend..............oh I wish I'd not started - got almost half way, thread knotted and I couldn't get it undone so ended up breaking it:eek: On top of that I knocked my coffee all over the floor :eek: Now have button necklace that would fit a doll....................lol:rotfl:(well you have to laugh don't you but don't you hate it when things go wrong ? or is it just me ?)
    I would be unstoppable if only I could get started !

  • i find when one thing goes wrong, lots do
    and the more you battle, the worse it gets

    i KNOW its best to walk away and go back to it
    but thats easier said that done

    so i can feel your pain, i bet we all can

    spent all day making a gingerbread family
    lady in america saw them, and asked me to make some
    to represent each member of her family that she spends christmas day with

    so i have her family, MIL, FIL, mum & dad, little girl, 2 boys, & BIL
    all sat on my workbench
    they just need stuffing & fininshing
    then off they go
