Christmas Crafts 2012

Hi do you mind if I join you all? You all have some fab ideas.

This year I made some homemade chalkboards and plaques for my sisters. I ended up setting up a Facebook page and did really well selling handpainted Xmas decs, hanging plaques, chalkboards and bunting.

Id like to try something new this year. I plan to make some sock animals and maybe try and learn to crochet.
The last few years I've turned my hand to cross stitching, jewellery making, card making and cute things with polymer clay. I like to keep busy.

Went to The Range today and managed to get some 6" box frames, pine. Good price at £3.49. Probably best price I have seen.
