  • Hi everyone, I am just finishing off 22 lavender hearts of various styles. I couldn't sleep last night, so I spent three hours designing a Victorian inspired label, photos to follow!
    :D Thanks to MSE, I am mortgage free!:D

    Hi,
    im having a table at a senior school fair that was meant to be on the 10th december, i get a email to say it has been changed to the 20th november :eek:

    so now i only have 10 days to get everything ready,

    so far i have :
    snowman soup, reindeer poop, reindeer food, snowman poop, blue reindeer noses, mini soaps, bath fizzers and bath salts,

    is their anything else i can make quickly as im used to having a large table full of crafty bits, i have attempted cupcake socks but they looked a right mess.
    i did think about a boys version of fairy soup but cant think what to put in instead of pink milkshake powder

    thanks

    You could do reindeer flannels,pints of socks, boys version of fairy soup chocolate milkshake, choc chips and foam bananas (3 packs for 99p tesco or co-op. Poem ;
    A Cheeky Monkey Shake just for you!
    Add some milk stir it through,
    Add banana and chocolate chips to,
    And it will turn into banana goo
    for you!!!
