    Awww thanks everyone for your lovely comments. I've managed to get a couple of hours peace my grandparents came to the rescue and have taken Harri out for a few hours for me to crack on. I'm working nights tonight and my 1st fayre is Thursday so time not on my side:eek: :eek:

    Just made up my Snowman cake - its quite bright and funky - not overly Christmassy though not sure whether I should add any more to it or not?

    Enjoying making the Christmas ones don't really want to make the neutral, pink and blue now !!!

    Howdidthishappen I agree with Rusty we all find our own way with the nappy cakes - nobody ever makes them identical. I really enjoy shopping for all the bits and love coming up with new designs. Once I had made my first one there was no stopping me xxx

    Thanks Rusty I'm glad you liked it :D I wasn't sure about the colours until I put it all together and I'm really pleased with the result. Just sold one straight away on Facebook so thats good news.
    I think I will only make the 2 up and take orders for any more Xmas ones just in case they don't sell.
    Going to make a start now on some cupcakes xx

    Hi Shelley,

    I LOVE the snowman cake it's fab! I really love that snowman! In the immortal words of Brucie, "he's my favourite!"

    RF,

    I totally agree that all our cakes would be different even with the same contents. I didn't realise that Candy did her ribbons the same way, I can't remember her cakes how bad is that! Sorry Candy!

    They're lovely Moonpenny,

    I love the toys, they're unusual.:T :T :T
  • wow moonpenny they look great, where did you get the clothes from they look really nice, are they long sleeved? i haven't found any sleepsuits i like and that are a good price yet so am using bodysuits. I nearly bought those teddies too are they from home bargains.

    My craft fair was alot of stress for nothing, It was a really poor turn out. People had to pay to get in and the weather wasn't good so people didn't want to come out. I did sell 2 cakes which was great as i didn't expect that. I sold them in the first hour and after that no one new can in.

    I have another one in 2 weeks in a small local villiage a few miles away and although it is small it is a bit more well off then my town so i may have more luck. who knows.
