    I also find it very hard to find things/ keep up with this thread! its just so quick moving!!

    anyone got any ideas on how we group things or anything like that? i think we need our own website at this rate of going!! lol

    I hope this thread will continue with "everyday" crafts after christmas, would be nice for people to still share their ideas and creations after christmas!

    seriously need to get stuck in over the next week, been granted a stall at our local market soo excited! my mum is going to do it with me, so we need to get a move on with our makes!! i just hope the stuff sells as i have spent a small fortune buying things, and will have put alot of effort into making them!

    keep up the lovely work ladies! I just love coming on each time to see what everyone has done! :)

    Oh my life ..... it takes me ages now to catch up with this thread now it moves so quickly!!!

    To be honest I haven't had much time to post as I must have sent out at least 50 humbug and 50 snowman soup files out so far ....!!! But its so great that everyone is being so crafty xxxx


    Washing Up Kebabs!

    This is an idea ...... not my own I got it from this Fairy Liquid ad (below)

    I used a bamboo kebab skewer on mine, but I think the metal skewer in the add looks better.

    I went to Poundland and bought an assortment of washing up stuff, brillo pads, etc

    Might be something that could sell at a Christmas Fayre ..... cleverer people than I could think of a really witty name for them

    Would be an excellent present for Dads - for after Christmas Dinner!!!!!!!!!!

    I'm going to make one for the better half!!! He always goes on about his braai (bbq -to us Non-Africans), I think our last braai was a couple of weeks ago at his South African bosses house.

  • Has anyone sold any christmas craft items at a car boot sale? if so did you find things sold well or not?
  • I really like those scrubber kebab sticks but even looking at the wire wool makes me go all goosey.... couldnt bear the thought of touching them....

    that and wet wool............... spine shivers...
