* It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year * - It's the 2016 Christmas Chatter Thread

Ooh MRSMONEYPENNY it looks like my first effort did produce at least access to the pics, now all I have to do is remember what I did because I've wiped it off now. I'm blooming hopeless, I can't even get it to do what I did half an hour ago now! Giving up for now, will try again later.


The reindeer will be coming out again this year although the red noses need repainting and poor Wonky has collapsed due to the over splayed angle of his legs! He'll need a little surgery this year. The tree is full size.

Has anyone kept Free's idiot guide to uploading photos- I'm in need of assistance rather than just posting a link as I usually do?

I'm having trouble uploading my photos with photo bucket at the moment. My jingle bell craft from last month is on my IG as I couldn't get it to work on here. Went into hobbycraft yesterday and bought one Christmas present with s 20% off voucher and a little something for me, a Christmas cross stitch. I will be doing the Christmas cross stitches and then putting them onto cards for next year.

Just popping on to say boots have s good flash Friday sale 1/2 price on men's toiletries. I have got a few things to put in stockings and for tree presents. https://www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CatalogSearchResultView?storeId=10052&st=specificPromo&promoName=Flash+Friday+%26%2345%3B+1%26%2347%3B2+price+on+selected+Mens+%26%2340%3Bexcluding+Philips+Oneblade+%26%2338%3B+Blades%26%2341%3B&langId=-1&catalogId=11051

Heres my challenge take 2 (without the helping paws and teeth of a certain Mr Bailey!)

Its a goldfish cocktail bowl (pounsdhop) with bottle brush trees(the Works) and copper lights with a bag of artificial SNOW chucked over it. I have been looking for one of those miniature cars with the tree on the roof to go at the front of the bowl, It will be on the unit in the corner at Christmas to light up the dark corner.
(My first attempt at the challenge that was slashed by the above assistant was an attempt at making a LED canvas- probably best that Bailey slashed it as it wasn't one of my best attempts )

Wow Murie that's incredible! Will look lovely all lit up in the dark. :T

Just ordered my sister a sweets hamper for her birthday coming up. Funky Hampers have £5 off any order at the moment on their newsletter: http://us1.campaign-archive1.com/?u=192b794d1a14f4bb457eb24f6&id=e3909bba02

Got my last dose of antibiotics tonight. Can't tell if it's working yet though! :rotfl: But at least I haven't had any nasty side effects (touch wood!!) from them.

I'm a bit annoyed at Boots (or just impatient lol). How can they have a star gift today if they haven't even put their Christmas items online yet? The cheek of it!
