Good morning ladies, hope everyone is feeling well and crafty today. I've spent last night making the 3rd origami table centrepiece and have now got a left hand covered in plasters after slicing a finger open with a pair of scissors and then catching my thumb on the end of the cellotape dispensor!
A word of warning to others, it seems it is NOT a good idea to try and dig a hole in a pine cone yur holding in your hand with the point of a pair of scissors!

Lesson duly learned by me :doh:

Oh dear jakes-mum! Hope it heals quickly, I can recommend aloe gel...it may sting a bit at the beginning, but it fairly speeds up the healing process

Hollie - you can save your favourites/bookmarks to a USB pen or external Hard-drive!!

I use Firefox, and there you click on the Bookmarks tab, then Organise Bookmarks, then the Import and Backup tab at the top. To save them to your USB or external Hard-drive, click on Backup, and choose where to save it...I suggest making a new folder titled Backups or something similar, and save into it, don't change any if the formats. To restore them on your new machine, click on Restore rather than Backup in the procedure above.

With Internet Explorer, click on Favorites, then the down arrow beside the Add to Favorites... tab at the top, then Import and Export, a small window will open up, click on Export to a File, then Next; on the next page click on Favorites, then Next. Choose which you want to save, probably all, so keep the Favorites folder at the top highlighted, then click Next. Now click on Browse to find your USB or Extrenal Hard Drive to save your favorites to, again making a new folder to save them into. Click Save and then Export, then Finish to end the process. To get the favorites onto your new machine, you will need to click on Import from a File rather than Export to a File, and follow the instructions to get them back onto your new machine.

Hope this helps! I did this last year when we got a new PC...worked a dream!

Hoping ot get more crafting done today and tomorrow, but have a few Xmas pressies to finish so I can hand them over on Saturday!

Hollie - You can transfer your favourites onto a pen drive or external hard drive and then put them onto your new laptop when you get it.

I have sorted my magnetic pegs. They are all made and bagged but I can't do a picture as I am a newbie! I am really pleased with them too. So now I am off late night shopping to buy some ribbon and bits to finish off my snowmen soups and a project with a pair of salad servers. I need to personalise them, not too sure how yet (Other than using ribbon) but they were such a good bargain from Mr T's at 50p instead of £4. So I am off with my creative "How can I adapt that" hat on for some insparation!

Would someone let me know for the Reindeer Poop bags - approx what weight of raisins are people putting in each bag and how much are you charging. TIA.
