    Natbag, you use so much in it!! Makes me feel tight, lol.

    Only because it's stuff I already had - and it's for me! :rotfl:
    Was going to post my photo and the memory card is stuck in the camera, so I need to find the cable instead, sigh.
    Oh, Sainsbury's has 1/3 off baby stuff for the next week which makes nappies and toiletries much cheaper - I'm going to stock up again. And I just saw Ikea has gorgeous fluffy baby blankets in for £2.99 - pink, blue and white/cream.

    Ok, had to retake with another camera with flash, but here's my first attempt at a nappy cake. And it's all mine, yay!

  • BravoBeastie... I love those cakes... esp the blue one!
    Quick question, where did you find the toys and blankets... I like the idea of the patterned blanket and also that blue elephant is too cute!

    Hi, thank you. The blue blanket was from Wilko's, cost £3.99 :eek: and the blue toy was from Home Bargains £1.69

    Thanks all! :)
    RustyFlange - I think my mum bought it for my first son on one of her regular trips to Florida - but maybe the Disney Store has something similar?

  • TYPICAL!!!!:rolleyes:

    Live 100+ miles from the nearest home bargains... even wilko's is a good half hour from me (assuming it's sill there.. haven't been back to the town since finishing working there in 1997!)
    Anyway I did a 1 tier cake the other night and was hoping to do a 3 tier one tonight, waiting for nappies - but Mr Tesco called at 8.00 to say my order couldn't be delivered! So DH :A has had to go out and collect it from the shop (20 mins away!)

    Did the link work in my post the other day? I showed a cake I made for a friend a couple of months ago.... still wondering how to actually post a picture rather than a link... I use Picasa as always have problems evening accessing Photobucket :p


    Just practising... random
    OK - back to the drawing board! :rotfl:
