LolaLemon; What a shame, I think I would have made a crazy patchwork with them all!

No I'm not over run by the monkeys they get sold!

Lolalemon - love the cubes.......what a good idea:T

tina - your notebooks and bags are beautiful....:T

Really must get my 'crafty' hat on and do something.............seems to be taking me ages to get motivated and find something simple to do that I've not done before........:(
Kick my butt someone.............:rotfl:

I've been busy making sock monkeys today. I'm also putting together a sweet box for my friend who is obsessed with pick and mix, I got a box to put the stuff in from Home Bargains for £1.50 got a few bits and bobs for it already but going in to town tomorrow to get some more stuff, I'm also making him a CD with 21 songs on from 21 years (He's going to be 21 funnily enough!), I was going to do 21 number ones from his birthday but some of them are awful!!

I'm not sure why it has been putting a link and not the pic which it normally does with all the pictures i keep trying to post of my makes recently. i think its the new ipad i have been using as normally when i copy a picture from my blog it copies the actual picture not just a link to the pic. I'm on a differnt laptop today so lets see if this works...

Just thought i would share a really cheap gift idea with you - using a tin can instead of a gift bag or wrapping paper. This onei have made for Easter as its a bunny but you could decorate the tin however you want and they are so easy to make and do look really effective. instructions on my blog if anyone wants to help making one x x
