Hi, it's mega windy here aswell! been crazy. I am from the north east. Live in Blyth, Northumberland. Easier to say the toon or newcastle as we aren't far from there really. If you could let me know the shop name that would be fab! Do you have a pic of the blankets?


Chatty I missed your new cream one amongst all of the other ones. Looks lovely well done.

Ooooh just wondering where you're getting blankets for £1? Most of mine are £3-£4 cheapest I've found is £1.99 from Dunelm!!
:T

Popkins,
I used to get some nice fleece blankets from B&M 99p, but on the last 2 occasions, they haven't had any.
I am sure others have posted that they've had trouble finding these now, so maybe they have stopped doing them

Julie H, do the shops you have them in do much of a mark up on the cakes?

They have 10% of what sells and they sell it for the price i want

JoJo that looks great - I bought one of those Baby on Board teddies the other day - was trying to put it on my cake earlier but its a bit tricky as it doesn't sit down!!!

I've seen these ones, could you not do a circle of nappies, leaving a space in the middle and slot in it's legs?

Blyth is'nt that far about 40-50 miles

will find out this weekend going to stockton tomorrow
i have seen the pics on here of the blankets, either blue or pink with
teddy's on (camera batteries flat so i can't post) nor know how to yet

just a quick question - do you decide how many different sizes, styles you
are doing then stick to them or just do what you fancy
its just we are doing a craft fair and rach will be wanting some leafets doing
i really don't want to get involved i prefer making my dog treats
but with her working full time i always do most of the ground work
thanks
sat here in dressing gown with hair in towel must dry it, shame the wind has died down since i could have just put head out of the door

Thanks

Hello everyone,

Must start by congratulating you all on the fantastic cakes and gifts you have all been working so hard on.
I have made afew for friends over the last year thanks to the amazing advice on this site,the best bit is i was only able to read posts from a friends computer every now and then but now i have my own computer,try keeping me away:j.

Ive seen so many cakes catching up this evening and i dont want to miss anyone out so well done EVERYONE your cakes are such a tonic to see keep it up,

Rusty Thanks for the comments but I had to let it go as they were waiting for it but I managed to tweak it. I changed the ribbon on the middle tier and added a couple sock roses. Once it was wrapped it looked so much better.

Its urprising how quick one can be made up when we have to.

Julie those are lovely as usual

Emmawelcome onto this addictive thread. Yes we are all obsessed with nappies, but thankfully they are nice, clean, sweet smelling unused ones Lol

But don't forget you have to post us the pics of your lovely creations.

Personally I get so much enjoyment by seeing everybody elses cakes as much as the enjoyment I get from making my own

Rusty Am I right in saying you use huggies. If so which ones do you find the best. I have always used pampers but with the 1/3 off at sainsbury these will work out slightly cheaper, (not much but every little helps.) they dont do the large pamapers 104 pack like asda so i looked at the huggies. but there are soooo many to choose from it confuses an old mum like me.
I remember in my day soaking the terry nappies in napisan before washing.... yuck the smell.:rotfl: :rotfl:
