Hello All :j

I will go back and read all of todays posts in a minute, but I thought I would just show you all what I have made today.

The pictures aren't great as they were taken on my phone. And some things are not finished as we need a new ink for the printer, to make the labels and tags look nice.

Well here goes -


Tile Coasters


Magnet Pegs


We Whisk you a Merry Kissmas


Corner Bookmarks


Sock Cupcakes with Lindt Choc cherry


Money Tree Cards


Make Mine a Pint


Cup of Tea closed (need to make labels on printer)


Cup of Tea open (poem to be done on printer)


Scrunchie Cupcake with Lindt Choc cherry

Am going to make the chocolates tomorrow.

Coming out of Lurkdom for the second time as these are just amazing, can't believe you've done all that in such a short time!

I'm sure you'll have no bother selling them.

Also to say to all of you that I love reading this and taking on board all your tips and suggestions, the girls at work have started to call me Mrs Claus, little do they know that most of it comes from here - ha ha

Hi all I hope you don't mind me popping in. I just wanted to let people know that poundland have some really great storage tins, they are like cake tins.They have blue and red with a snowflake design and I thought it might be helpful for those making home made gifts and hampers or for xmas baking

Oh and they also had Christmas design molds that would be great for making homemade chocolates In fact they seem to have a really good range of christmas things this year! Hope this helps someone!

curiouscrafter Im doing my 11 year old daughter a baking hamper, ideas so far are... How to bake (book from great british bake off) cooling rack, scales, bun cases, timer, rolling pin, wooden spoons, whisk, apron, cake tins, cookie cutters, piping bags and nozzles...

She loves to bake and excluding the getting out of oven part I can trust her to do her thing! (she could probly do the getting out of oven bit but I dont let her yet)

Im also doing my 10 year old daughter a hamper which hasnt got a name... shes a notebook freak so its writing paper, books, notepads, stationery and maybe a few personalised items that Ive found on ebay.

Its hard when they get older because they want things which are more expensive which means they get less to open....I know its what they want but I keep thinking their pressies will look bad next to my 4 year olds but what can I do?

wot about a bero book and note book to write her favert recipes in

Hi all,

Own my own-those are lovely gifts that you have made, the sock cupcake looks really realistic and love the money tree cards.

Pinkandfluffy- sorry to hear about your job.

Chickywiggle-that jumper is amazing!

Sorry if its already been mentioned by someone but Was in Wilkinson today and noticed that they have moshi monsters advent calendars for £1, guessing at that price it wont be the best chocolate you can get but might still be of use for someone.

Picked up a few more things for OH stocking, just some shower gel that he likes that isn't Lynx as he will prob get a load of that off everyone else for Christmas.
Oh and some chocolates that Superdrug had by the till, a net of some wrapped in foil with reindeer on and a net with Santa foil wrap(I'm a sucker for these Christmas chocolates) they were near the till 2 for £1.
