    Had a really busy weekend and got NO crafting done :( I fear time is running out :eek: Local table top sale is sold out so am going to have to try flogging my wares (when I finally make them :o) at local toddler groups etc.

    As others have posted here are our pumpkins

    My first time too! Larger one was supposed to have teeth cut I got carried away and continued cutting his lower smile :o

    Hollie - your pumpkins are fab! How did you manage to do such fine cutting?

    Littlelibrarylass - your makes look fab :D

    Lindens - Hmmm I have a Pets at home at my local retail park! Heading off there this week as I think it's worth 99p just for the bells :T Personally I'd pick it all to pieces and use the fabric and bells for card making or perhaps cobble together decorations for the tree??

    fab makes tranmererovers i have only made one box so far need to make a few more,i put mini candy canes in mine.look fab though. hope you sell lots
  • Fab makes everyone love the pumpkins we cant have them here as DS is scared of them but we did manage to dress him up and take him trick n treating which was more than we managed last year he even let me draw a spider on his face but i forget to take pics also made him a spider web cone to collect his goodies in although people did get a bit amused when he was signing at them rather than speaking so it took us quite a while to get round and we only did our road.

    Goodluck to everyone who are due to start selling things hope you all do well, will be interesting to see what sells well.
