    I've only looked through the first few and the last few and I must say that they're absolutely fantstic! One question though - where do you store them as I'm sure that it's not something that you can knock up as a last minute thing?
  • Duke, I had the same panic when my eldest told me his girlfriend was coming round after college today !!! The look on my face was like :eek: :eek:

    So mine are all in my bedroom now with door closed :D Unfortunately my youngest's pc is in there aswell, so he is in complete incomunicado at the moment until she goes, with strict orders NOT to open the door in the meantime (bless him) bet he is crossing his legs like mad ;) hehe :rolleyes:

    But after she goes I have to find a permenant place for them until xmas eve, thats not going to be easy :(

    :rotfl: I wouldn't have anywhere to put mine - not that I'm in the slightest bit creative, if it's not square or oblong then I have serious problems wrapping it up :o

    Can anyone tell me if the Yes/No dolls would be very heavy to post please? A friend of a friend knows someone who lives near one of the branches but I don't want her to put her to too much trouble if they are heavy:eek: . Thanks.

    I've got some on my shelves. The stick insects tank is on there currently, so I might move them onto the floor to make more room. I've got several on the shelf under my dining table, and then some on the floor under that. I've got bits for hampers, plus wrap/bows in bags, boxes and hamper baskets surrounding the dining table,

    All the contents for my hampers (yes, I am going to do some now that I have been inspired) are all around my tiny office - there is just about enough space for my desk, chair and my clothes horse.

    I put my hampers into a bin bag each and carefully put them into the attic!

    When you bunch up cellophane for the top it looks nice if you cut the top at an angle.

  • I popped up to school yesterday and was approached and asked to make up hamper by the PTA (they said they would cover costs) and they wanted a xmas themed one.

    Went to ASDA and bought this lot. Told them if they didnt like it i would rearrange it.

    What do you think?
