    Thanks for all the stocking hanger suggestions! I shall look again online, and in TK Maxx.
    (Or just give up and pin them up!)

    I bought lovely gingerbread man stocking hangers from Debenhams.
  • Hopefully last bits of Christmas shopping today. Going to take dog on arranged 7 mile walk 1st, then while she sleeps I can shop! Got another Amazon order due and then the mammoth task of wrapping. Need to get some more bits for my ds and his girlfriend's hamper. I have done them a night in hamper so have chocs wine bubble bath - wondering if any of the restaurants do vouchers for take aways?
    Looks cold but pretty out there today. Keep warm and safe!

    I know that pizza express do takeaways and sell vouchers, you can have a look on their website. Also if you get a £20 voucher you can get a free side of garlic dough balls. :)

    My plan for the Christmas fete is to have a real Christmas tree and put all my tags and decorations on there for buyers to choose :) I think the kids will love this!

    I just had a look at your page to see if you had a website and I see you are from Poole, so am I! Are you doing local fetes? I would love to come and see (buy!) your makes :)

    Morning. Think we are putting the tree up later. It all depends how I get on. It's my first Christmas fair tonight. I'm still painting lol. I have all the twine and ribbons to out on for hanging and to wrap my tea cul candles with cellophane. I will take a pic once it's all set up tonight. Just hope I sell some stuff after all my hard work.

    Morning all!!
    Feisty Fidget, your Gingerbread ornament is gorgeous! So pretty.

    Sorry I've not been on for a few days or so, our net connection has been a little problematic. Not fun when you're up before the lark, and you've no net connection. Lots of thumb twiddling to be done. Mind you, I did my housework this morning, so at least some good came out of it, lol. House was all cleaned by 7.45am! :j

    I'm about to embark on another phase of wrapping today, but am a little miffed that the lights I'd hung from the kitchen window are no longer working this morning, Shall have to take them down to see if I can find the rouge bulb!

    Thought you might also like to see Christmas Cupcakes I've made, no doubt the first of many over the next few weeks! :rotfl:
