    We all are pressed for time ( busy shopping everywhere). I have made pretty simple 16 Christmas cupcake decorations under 60 minutes. Do we have any beginners here for fondant/sugarpaste, then I will put up step by step photos or instructions. I am being lazy to do that, so checking beforehand if somebody needs it.
    I have it because I always shoot while making.
    I am cupcake maddy!!

    Wow, I wish I was as good at creating things like that as you. I can bake a decent sponge cake but they normally end up being dusted with icing sugar as making things out of fondant always ends up looking naff when I do it. I may just have to wander over to sainsburys and get some pre-made stuff hehe
    Trying to save up for a deposit for a mortgage....could be a while!!

    Comping since 15/06/2014 - thanks to all those who post the competitions ❤️😀

    I DID IT!! I got the snow patrol christmas acoustic tickets :) Concert is on 23rd December so proper christmassy! This really has made my christmas! Tickets sold out in 8 minutes so feel very lucky (and a bit shaky with nerves lol)

    Yay well done on the tickets that sounds fab! I love Snow Patrol.

    I'm not feeling great today so i'm working from home, and i've got The Holiday on in the background. :D

    I was feeling a bit panicky as usually this time of year Ive got multiple items being delivered daily but this year its different had 2 things arrive today and that's all Ive got on order , but when Ive checked my lists Ive only 2 items to buy thanks to this thread Ive been super organized without even realizing it .

    Ive decided to use topcashback from now on rather than quidco as i can convert any monies into amazon vouchers next Christmas.
    would it be too much to have a Christmas 2013 chatter thread after the new year , i don't post a huge deal but i have enjoyed following this thread from the start.

    Don't worry. It is all in hand. I am starting the new thread. I have been saving all links to put on first pages ( don't think one page will be enough).:rotfl:

    There will be a link to it on this thread, so you won't miss it .:D

    I treated myself to a Lakeland one last year:

    Advent.jpgQUOTE]

    MY MIL bought this for DS 1 about 6 years ago & it's gorgeous, then when DS 2 came along, she had to get him one & bought another that Lakeland used to do with Santa & elves. That on top of a Christmas tree advent from costco which is huge, a Lego advent & 2 choc advents, you can hardly move in our house. :eek: then MIL also insists on buying the noisy Christmas toys which are scattered around the house. Showed some to DS 2 (2) today in sainsburys & they freaked him out so hoping I might have an excuse to "lose" a few of ours :rotfl:

    Whoever was looking for a Mary outfit, home bargains had some in for £4.99.
