    They also do a larger one for £2.99

    Thank you. I had seen these somewhere else for the same price. I'm making so many bottles that this would work out quite expensive - but they would look lovely :D.

  • Morning everyone.

    Nothing Christmassy for me today, working overtime, just like yesterday. My rubbish body does not like working so many days in a row, but it/I will just have to suffer as we could do with the extra cash.

    Then rushing off after that to view a flat as we may need to downsize from the house. We are giving ourselves this month to see if we can definitely manage still, but going along to view the flat as its good to know what is out there and if we really had to move if we would take it.

    Still have not figured out why amounts are different on Christmas apps, going to get some good old fashioned pen and paper and work it out :xmassmile

    Hi guys,

    I've just seen the candy kitkat Sleighs, love them! Can I ask what other chocolates you use to top it?

    Thanks

    Morning, I decided to order the wooden Nativity science from Tesco. The kids will like playing with it.

    I have loads of orders for my wooden Christmas decorations to make. So I'm waiting for the wee one to go down for her nap, get some Christmas tunes in and get painting.

    I'm also going to make the candy sleighs this year, I always do snowman soups for the kids teachers etc, so this year they can have some thing different.

    Ordered Dads Dog his pressie ?:rotfl:

    If you need people to buy for, I have some you can have :rotfl:

    Oh I don't need people to buy for, ta! The dog's a real tough chewer and the only chews we've found that last, I can only find on Amazon. Used a voucher I'd earned through surveys so it costs me nothing. He enjoys tearing open his pressies. I don't buy for my own cats though, they just don't get the whole Christmas thing :D

    Morning xmasers!

    Dropping kids at school then on to some Xmas crafting! Xxx

    Ooh, what are you making? I only usually make cards and sometimes gift boxes, maybe I should branch out a bit.

    I make hair accessories for little girls and have a school craft fair and a church craft fair to make up for as well as a million custom orders to get on with! I love it but just so much to do and I only get a few mornings a week to do them when both littlies at school and preschool and Im home from work as the hot glue gun is too dangerous to have out with them about!!!

    Glad you liking 'Xmasers'!!!

  • morning!

    a 'Card Factory' shop has opened up on our local high street I noticed this morning, never seen it before and think it's a store recently vacated by someone else. Anyway - loads of good Christmassy stuff, huge (3ft high) Christmas gift bags 99p, 2 for 1.50, loads of smaller ones too, may get some for my Christmas Eve hampers as cant find any reasonably priced baskets yet. Cards, wrapping, tags, stickers etc etc all really cheap prices, so worth a look if you have one nearby :)

    was going to get Disney Store gift bags (the shoppers) as they are £2 each and they had wonderful Christmassy ones last year, so will see what they have first or me to use for Christmas Eve - thinking I can save them for next year after use!

    Hello,
    I have been pretty absent for a while but I just nipped on to tell you that my M&P's Crumble sack arrived in the store for collection today - Just when I was about to phone them and chase it up! So anyone else waiting for theirs should receive them shortly :)
    I will post a pic if you like later, hope everyone is well. I shall catch up over the next 2 days :)
    Everything is always better after a cup of tea
