Hi there :hello:

I have just read the whole 171 :shocked: pages again as I wanted some ideas again as I was a little to late last year in starting so this yr I wanted to be ready lol

I saw a picture of some dog treats so I thought I would start with them as I wanted to see how they would look please tell me what you think

Dog Treat's

Not sure how to add pics don't think I have made enough posts yet I also copied the "Yappy Christmas" hope you don't mind
I spotted ES mint's in HB (think that's the short version of the right shop lol ) they had milk chocolate ( I got these) and the orange one's @ £1.69 a box

Thanks again for all your beautiful ideas xx

I've tried but can't upload pic's, can anyone help? is there away around this please. How many posts will have have to make?

If you have an online album like photobucket, flikcr, or even a blog you can add it to you homepage and share pics that way. That was the only reason I started my blog in the first place!

Thank you for info, don't have a need normally for an online album as I have 2 websites. If I need to stick photos online I just use a folder from one of these. I can't see anyway to add to add link from homepage, I suppose it's because I'm a newbie. Still if Craftygranny is correct I only have to do 6 more comments. Fingers crossed.

Hi

I did say that although I cannot get the photo's to upload I would tell you the poem I have to go with the cloth dogs so here goes

I made this little gift for you,
I thought it was unique
I bet you can't guess what it is
its so trendy and so chic.

When your car is full of dust
You’ll not get in a fluster
cos when you undo this little dude
he's a micro fibre duster

If anyone can improve it, suggestions welcome

Yah, 15 posts and 10 thank you's and I can upload pics :j

Here goes MICRO FIBRE CLOTH DOGS



The cloths I used were oblong not square.



Roll the long edges into the middle.



Fold into approx thirds



Wrap a small elastic band approx 2 thirds down



Wrap a small elastic band between what will be front and hind legs and take over top of the head to form a face. pull face and legs into shape if needed.



Ears were cut out in one peice from an old pair of jeans and pushed through the space at the top of the head.



Eyes and nose were printed on PC and stuck on using double sided tape. scrap of ribbon used for collar.

I was lucky enough to find the cloths on special offer at Amazon £2 for 6 so only cost me about 35p each. They are selling on internet as flannel dogs for approx £3 each.

I have already posted the poem for these dogs in comment above.

Thank you for all you help and I hope you like these.

I have searched but cant find anything specific but I may have firday evening frazzle right now. Last Xmas I got bought some beautiful plain metal large paperclips (1" wide by about 3" long) I would love to make them into something - bookmarks anything really that I could twist to suit bys girls and adults alike however I have as much flair and imgagination as a mud puddle and wondered if anyone has a flash of inspiration I could borrow?
