Does anyone have a tutorial on the reindeer flannels?? im trying to think of things my older mindees can make for their parents, in the past we have made crackers using flannels and tubes and filled with smellies but some of them have done these a couple of times now

I think someone posted a link on here but not sure what page it's on. You might be able to google it and get something to help.

kisto - thanks for the box template link.............I've sat and made boxes all afternoon and just logged on and seen that................lol

pointofnoreturn - had a look at your blog........love the button bracelets.........:T I had a go at them myself earlier this year but I was using that elastic cotton and as it stretched to go over the wrist it left spaces in between the buttons.........have to make note of your method for next year. Don't think I'll have time this year now

Does anyone have any suggestions where I can find the individual t-bags or coffee sachets?

Ikea only if you want a few obviously, I don't think they would be happy for lots to go missing!


I've loved looking at this thread, it has got some great ideas! Hoping to find some time soon myself to make a few things... there always seems to be something else to do though!

I got my flannels from dunhelm mills for 29p each and they stock all colours in their bathroom section.

where did you get the card you've used or did you buy it ??

It's just plain white card from one of the pound shops that I printed on before making up

That's a great price - unfortunately the nearest Dunhelm is very far from me.
