    Hi all,:santa2:
    Regarding the Pinterest board....
    Thanks Pixtotts, I will check.
    Peppapig. I have looked but there was no message so ~I typed in Elfilicious and got a board. Unfortunately I don’t know if it is the right one as everyones names look different!!!!!!!!!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    There are some fab things on there and I have some stuff that I’m going to see if I can add. I never pin….I just move around the site in a delicious haze…….:o

    . I remember the drama of the missing elves very well. I felt your pain as I lost my knitted sherry bottle cover one year :eek: and Christmas just wasn’t the same :mad:

    Freespirit66 Lovely recipe. Its added to my folder.

    Off to browse your pins :D

    Bye for now
    xxx

    I'm back....Been on pinterest and tried to pin a pic but I seem to have made a whole new board :( PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!
    Start by doing what's necessary, then do what's possible and suddenly you are doing the impossible:j
    Christmas is not a time but a state of mind :xmassmile
    Trying.....Very trying- as my DH would say :whistle:
    Loving de-cluttering :heart:

    Ha ha, I know how you feel. I'm pretty new to it too and it was more by luck than judgement that I added pics to the right place lol. I'd signed up for Pinterest before Pixtotts invited me to the elfilicious board so when I clicked on the link it sort of knew who I was. When I want to pin something it now gives me the choice of the board I originally started for myself and the group one. I'm sure some of the more 'experienced' pinners will be able to guide you. Hope you're both in the same place anyway!

    Kelly I'll talk to DD re the elf pic tomorrow and PM you when she sends it to me.

    Mrs G I've asked to join your elf group too.

    Aliaslottie the hampers look really good. At least once you've cellophaned them you won't be tempted to keep adding things :D

    Cwtchingpennies, predictive text is so annoying isn't it. I put an ad on our local facebook selling page for some Hunter wellies and it changed it to willies :mad:

    I'm off to bed now - hope everyone gets a peaceful night x
    It's the most wonderful timeof the year :

    Of course :) this should take you there > http://www.pinterest.com/SimplyCharB/elfilicious/



    nitnurse-not2 I think they send you an email, but also if you log into pinterest and look top right the speech bubble thing should have gone red and it should be in there too... I've just added you again for good measure :)

    Though having said that if anyone has sent me their email address and not received an invite tell me because my internet can be appalling so sometimes it doesn't go through first try :(


    Those talking about making crackers I saw something somewhere... could have been hobbycraft book/website, could have been pinterest... not sure... but they put sequins in the crackers too! I thought that was an awesome idea, nightmare to tidy but got to love sparkles :D


    B I G news.... I just sold my first item on etsy!!
    It's only bunting made from vintage maps so I'm not exactly making my millions just yet, but eek! exciting!! :)

    Also just picked up a Boots Chirstmas gift guide, spotted them through the door so nipped in for 2 :)
    Got a reusable bag from Primark, "Owl I want for Christmas...." with a pickte of the cutest owl in a Christmas hat on one side and little owls and christmass puddings on the other :D

    x

    Well done on the sale! Could you send me a link me to your etsy shop so I can pop across?
