    They're lovely but unfortunately I have no little girls to make them for.
    We don't need to do it perfectly - good enough is exactly that GOOD ENOUGH.

    Love the reindeer pouches but don't have any little girls I'm afraid.

    craftygranny - I think the puddings look great with the silver holly leaves..........really classy:T

    All I've done today is make some peg tea towel holders..........thats all my wooden pegs used up now. Not sure who they're for.......might keep till next year.

    Did someone have a template for a flannel cupcake ? I'm thinking of making a small christmas cake with a white flannel I've got. Got some christmassy paper that I can use up........just need the shape to go by.
    I would be unstoppable if only I could get started !

  • Craftygranny - they are fabulous - well done.

    Can I just admit that I am feeling all crafted out :o I've got a box of stuff to try and sell, got a couple of orders to fulfil but I just CBA :o:o I've spent so long making up the box of stuff I am sick of the sight of it. If I don't sell enough of it I am soooooo gonna cry LOL!

    Same here everything I started tonight went wrong so relaxing for the night and giving the crafting a miss;) Will start again tomorrow.

    Hollie could you do a more detailed tutorial on the sock cupckes DD2 wants to make them for her cousin and I just cant get them to look right and neither can she :(

    craftygranny Love your puddings :D

    ok for those of you wondering how to do the adult sock cakes
    lay a pair of socks out flat
    11112010694.jpg
    fold over a small amount towards you
    11112010695.jpg
    then start rolling from the toe end
    11112010696.jpg
    once u get to heal fold that over slightly
    11112010697.jpg
    carry on rolling until u cant roll no more :rotfl: and u should have something that looks like this
    11112010698.jpg
    pop it into the case and pull the middle out slightly

    I am using these bags - they are actually A5 not C6 as my C6 envelopes won't fit into them but my A5 cards do.
    Still a bargain for 99p though ;)

    Mine arent as big as A5. They are half the size of A5 width ways but a little bit longer. :)

    Edit: They are A6 (it was written on the packet the whole time. Doh!!)
