  • Ooh, I am busy making lots of bits for our Christmas Fair at school. Just started on the ES mint decorations, they are £3.50 b1g1f in Mr T at the moment. Also made some reindeer soap and got reindeer food, reindeer poop and santa keys ready to farm out to some of the committee to make :)
    It's easier to get forgiveness than to ask permission ;)

    Do you know....I've been skimming these threads for ages......constantly reading ES mints as "extra strong"...and wondering what on earth you could all be doing with extra strong mints......and just as I went to google "extra strong mint craft"...it struck me that you mean Elizabeth Shaw. *thumps self on forehead*

    I read it that they meant the reindeer flannels with the soap in the middle :)
