  • Put the chocolate in a separate cello bag tie it off and then into another cello bag :)
  • ah ha! two bags - excellent :) thank you!
  • Well our school Shopping Evening is tomorrow and I am nowhere near ready. I thought I was on top of it but I think I need at least another week lol. All the profits are for school funds so determined to do as much as I can. Have put together about 60 Snowman Soups so far and have sold 25 of them already. Also have about 80 Christmas cards, 4 bags of wine charms (have sold 6 bags), about 20 Snowman Poop, 3 Reindeer Poop (my job after school tomorrow to do the rest), about 40 little bags of sweets in little organza bags and about 50 bags of reindeer food. I will try and remember to take a picture of the table before we start tomorrow. I'm doing it all on my own so it's been quite hard. Thanks to all the wonderful people on here sharing their tips.
    If I had known then what I know now . . .

    I have lurked with great interest on your thread and the stuff you have made is incredible but what do you do when Christmas has gone? What do you do from January to say August when you're not in Christmas mode?

    Just wondered,

    Thanks Jan
    Valentine/Easter makes and of course Birthday gifts to make.

    Thank you for all the lovely shared ideas, eagerly waiting for my punches and cello bags to great cracking with all the "poop" bags! Last year I made a couple of hampers so carrying on this year, will hopefully get pics up when done!

    I have just found this on the Grabbit forum. I have just ordered loads for £20 including a load of freebie papers. May be helpful to the crafters out there

  • Can I be cheeky and ask how much you ladies sell your snowman soup for? I have made about 15 in the cone bags for a fair on sunday and wondered what was an average price?? I have made other things like cards and reindeer food etc which I have prices for just wasn't sue about the snowman soup

    Thanx in advance! :j
  • Awesome!
    I need to make a great fun. Where did you buy the frame? I would love it in my house. Love the pop of color! Thanks!:T
