Im heading out here at lunchtime soon so will have a look for you.

I buoght brown plain tags like this and Im goingto decorate myself - particularly bought to put with the brown santa bags from IKEA for my sons nursery teachers!

If anyone can't get these tags, I got exactly the same in The Range yesterday (not quite a good value though as it was 50p for 12).

Hope that helps someone!

Does anybody know where I can find about 30 lollipops that weigh less than 100g and are no thicker than 5mm??

might be worth sending an e-mail to see what width these are?
5mm is quite narrow tho.

ohhhh how much do I want to get these now my littlies will love them.

ahah - these are the ones I was looking for before I got sidetracked. - sorry can't find them on a UK site.

these (again you'd need to check the width)

Ok just back from shopping (with a turkey Feast M&S sandwich! would be rude not too!lol)

Vintage tags in poundland look really nice and v big too I would say about 3 inches in length.

But Im almost positive there are only 20 and not the 30 stated on the website. Thsi would make more sense as they are split ito 4 compartments Im assuming 5 of each design. If 30 it doesnt really work does it?

I tried manhandling them!! They seem quite sturdy

Hello all

I keep dipping into this thread, I love reading all of your lovely ideas!

I felt thoroughly festive yesterday - Bath had quite a lot of snow! The children were out in it by 9am! Dont think I can remember the last time they got dressed so fast ;D I had the xmas radio station on, we lit the fire and then I had a glass of red and we watched Polar Express!

Consequently I am feeling a little fragile today... I shouldve gone into town, I should be wrapping presents..... However I think I'll just drink tea

ohhhh just found large candy canes too if anyone is still after some. here

Also just spotted giant fizzy candy canes (in a box) in poundland. Think it may only be one but if you are only after making one sleigh may work out cheaper


HTH

msgigglewick
