They are not self-adhesive sorry but here is the link:

I haven't had mine yet but I know from ordering charms from Hong Kong they can take about 3-4 weeks, so I am expecting them any day.

Hmmmm just thinking about the CDM - I honestly thought they'd stopped making them years ago as I never saw them. Has anyone been to Cadbury World? Do they have a shop there for the general public or can you only buy from there if you've joined the tour? I confess despite living reasonably close I've never been

Just got to put shopping away that's been delivered and then I am going to have a brew and a piece of cake before the madness starts again.
I made up 12 bags of reindeer food (my mum thought the green sugar looked like mould in the bag :eek:) so I need to make the toppers for those, was hoping I'd be able to do that this afternoon (best laid plans an' all that )
I will not spend ALL afternoon on the 'puter

Glad it went well Hollie

Glad it went better today Hollie :j

li'l_p Ive just bought of those gems too, seem like a bargain! Although im sure ill get into a sticky mess trying to glue them on lol

Can anyone help me with where to buy chipboard coasters for the calendar coasters please? OH isn't in to going to the pub so can't sneak any beer mats.

macpep1 Your makes are great well done!

I hope mine turn out ok, Im in the middle of painting the office/craft room at the second though so have lavender paint everywhere...not an ideal crafting environment lol Thought id pop on here while im waiting for the first coat to dry, should really be sorting out all my stash but my fingers wanted to come on here

Bitsy Beans Im pretty sure you can just go into the shop. I know years ago you couldn't unless you had a ticket from the tour but Im sure they changed that so taht anyone could pop into the shop.
Can you tell I went a few times when i lived in the midlands lol

Hmmm perhaps it's worth me having a wee visit over there
I could make a killing selling them as they're rarer than hens teeth :rotfl:

I have been reading this whole thread and am now so inspired! I am going to be making the ES sweeties I think- thank you for all the lovely ideas, flyingpig, and everyone else as well!

i love this thread. I have never made anything like this before, ive had a look through most of the tread and am loving the things you have all made. Any advise on where to start for a beginer? was thinking of a few bits and peices for the kids to give their friends really and to grandparents that they can help with

Id try that but have 2 problems, I now live about 3 and a half hours away and Im pretty sure I'd eat more than I sold :rotfl:

Hi Charlotte, Im new to this thread too but have read it all and there are a couple of tutorials that seem simple to follow. The calendar coasters look like a nice and fairly easy idea and I saw that one of the members (really sorry can't remember who ) posted a picture of one that their child had made

And maybe the reindeer poop for their friends?
