Ha! The only thing my MIL will be getting is a present with rubbish wrapped up inside. She is so stuck up about a perfect house she goes around picking up little bits off fluff off the carpet :eek: I would love to see her face opening a present with lots of bits of paper and fluff that come out all over the floor :rotfl:

:rotfl::rotfl:You are wicked! If you do this though, please film it and show us:D

I tried but she's totally blind so couldn't do it. The guide dog she's got is useless too he just wanted to chew the papers not stick them.lol

But she could make some lovely cards i'm sure! Anything is modern art and creative these days!! :snow_laug
Add a paint brush to the dogs tail for added effect. Or even use his tail.

Hi Tranmere Rovers



This is how I package my pegs up, using a tall cello bag that I cut down - I think anything between 80mm x 90 mm width should be ok - it depends on how wide your embelishments are when on the peg.

I've been married to my oh for 30 years now so my mil and i are used to each other. At least when she visits she doesn't see the dust lol. She keeps telling us she's environmentally friendly as she never uses the lights etc .
