Aww thanks everyone, made me feel a lot better about them!

CT19720 - think your right about charging for the cards!! OH still expects me to make cards for all his family, hmm i'm thinking £1.50 a card :rotfl:

My going rate is £2.00 per card, but think I may say £3 each for him!

Well you have all been busy today and all I have been doing is sorting my bedroom and all the bags in there, as got to the stage of not knowing what is christmas presents and what is for crafting it has taken me hours:rotfl::rotfl:
Still I found some christmas presents I had forgot I bought.

Just need to list some stuff on ebay tonight so hopefully I can get back to crafting tomorrow.

Craft Magnets from this ebay seller lots of us have used him and he is quick and reliable

Flourgirl - what do you use to stick your magnets - wet glue?? I've only got some hobbycraft tacky glue, and wondered whether that would be strong enough?

Thanks

flourgirl

I just used some extra strong DST but I think Rainmac uses tacky glue with good results.

To be honest I found them in my craft box and they have been in their for ages so god knows where I got them from - sorry I cant be more helpful!!

Flower08 you have just made my night - your comment made me recall that i had a load of clear plastic sleeves that a bulk order of peeloffs had around to protect them. They are perfect to use for the gifts and they were sat in with all my craft stuff doing nothing, I am so happy.
Reindeer Poop for everyone for christmas this year then :rudolf:

Hi, just found this thread and :j wow! I'm not crafty in the slightest, but am going to give it a go! Got 3 little jars perfect for reindeer poo (2 nephews and my DD), and want to do pots of gold for adults. Does anyone have a poem or rhyme that goes on a pot of gold? Again, I'm not poetic in the slightest.... but really inspired by all this
I'm going to try labels on Word and see how I go

Flower - your choccie bags are lovely!!

Thanks everyone for nice comments about the calendars.:o

I bought a strip of magnet off ebay and it has a sticky back (like the double sided tape) the only trouble is you have to cut the amount off - i found it easy to do with a craft / stanley knife, if anyone wants anymore info about this i will put it on.

Just uploading some more piccys!
