  • This is my finished cardboard box that will hold movie hamper contents for DS.
    Quite impressed with myself as I'm not at all 'crafty' although I'm not going to divulge how it long it took me :rotfl:

    This year I will have something that resembles a garden and not a building site!

    This is amazing :eek: I am very impressed and will be taking inspiration for my cousins DVD, popcorn and sweetie set :)

    Well after a full 9 hour shift at work, I got in and have been making bloody tree necklaces in copper and precious stones since 6pm :( I've managed 7 pendants and my nails/hands are torn to pieces from all the wire work :(

    Same again tomorrow night, but in the silver plates version. I really don't want to do this fete now :(

    Archiebear - wow, your movie box looks fantastic

    OMO - is there no chance your mum might make up with her sister (or any possible way of giving them a wee push?) and then they could go back to the original plan.

    Had some more pressies come in the post today. Still not feeling very organised though - not got much for OH yet this year. Normally I see lots of little things and just pick them up but hardly got anything this year, need to go shopping this week but already manic in town with shoppers. Ah well, might go tomorrow after work.
