This is mine

THE PERFECT MAN

They say good men are hard to find
I know this to be true
But I hunted far and wide
And found one just for you!

He is no good at DIY
He cannot fix the car
But his socks are never smelly
And he doesn't stray too far

He always listens patiently
He won't pester you in bed
And if you get fed up with him
You just bite off his head!

I made about 50 to sell for charity and they sold very well.

I bought some of the cloths in Poundland, 3 in a pack, but they came up quite small. Wilko's cloths are a better size, but more expensive.

I've made some of these with cloths from Asda.
Where do I find the eyes and noses to print off please?
Also a template for the ears?

Thank you for your help with the Perfect Man poem.

This might be a strange request - but would anyone like to sell me some bag toppers? I bought myself a machine to do them all last year from ebay and it didn't really work properly buy I struggled on. This year it won't work at all and as I made the sweet bags for all my family and friends last year, they are expecting them this year and I don't know how else to make them

These bags by flyingpig are what I am after:



Hopefully one of you kind people will be able to help.

Thanks x

I used googly eyes from Poundland or Wilkos (can't remember now) and cut heart shapes out of black card with a card making punch for the noses. The ears were cut from legs of old jeans in a sort of '8' shape by trial & error. Once I found one that looked the right size, I made a cardboard template and then used that to cut out the rest.

Hope that helps.
