Hi Ladies,
I've been lurking for a few weeks now but only just felt brave enough to post.
There are so many amazing ideas on here and I've made plenty of notes as I've been talked into doing a Christmas Fair at my local primary school in December.
I'm a card maker normally but do like to make gifts at times and was fairly successful at work last year when I made gifts to sell.
I have purchased a cricut recently and this was used to make some little trick or treat bags that I gave to some of my friends at work for their children/grandchildren.
I'm unable to post a photo of them at the moment but my blog should be linked to my profile if anybody would like a look.
I hope to participate a bit more and post photos of any goodies that I make.
I wish I was lucky enough to have a HB B&M or IKEA near me but there is nothing and I don't drive so I have to hunt around a bit more!

Thanks
Sarah xx

Hi sarah and welcome. Love your halloween boxes.

Hollie you did well and good from the point of view people know what you can do and hope you get lots of customers tomorrow.

Thank you Tranmererovers and Craftygranny for your lovely comments.

Well done Hollie on your orders and fingers crossed that tomorrow brings more sales.

I've just gone and got some bits for my snowman soups and reindeer poop. I've also purchased some flannels for flannel cakes. I was just wondering what you use to stick your nose and eyes to the flannels? Is it just DST so that it comes off easily?
