    Hi,

    here's my latest, it's a 3 tier neutral. They wanted Nut brown hare but I had to just see what my gorgeous new paddingtons look like as well!

    Thanks Guys,

    Nicky it is paddington in the top one, he's a 50th anniversary edition.

    Bellag, there isn't anything in this one as she wanted a 3 tier but only had £25 so it's just the nappies, 2 muslins,blanket and the teddy.

    Julie, he is adorable. I bought 12 and took him and my miffy rabbits in to work to show them and paddington never made it home, decided I just had to have him on my desk! lol!

    Will post another pic tomorrow as have a 3 tier pink to do for friday with my new Miffy rabbit!

    Becs lovely cake, I like the paddington :) Is he normal paddington colours? or is it slightly different? (sorry hard to see from the pic) I love the whites/browns though :) looking forward to seeing your miffy :)

    Roughly what prices are your teds? I know you buy in bulk from somewhere?

    Rusty I think he's normal colours, I've posted a link of a pic to him below so you can see him better. He's 25cm tall. I average out the cost of the toys including p & p and they work out at appx £4.80 which is usually just under half retail price.

    Popkins, I think it's just practice. To be honest I did this one in 15 mins so wasn't my neatest but just tidied it up a bit before putting the ribbons on. I wrap the muslin in the same way as the blanket, fold into a triangle and then the point down to make a kind of rectangle. (thanks Bella for that one too! so I only owe my swirling technique, blanket folding method and wrapping methods to you now! :rotfl:)

    Oops sorry forgot to post!

    no minimum spend but needs to be a reasonable size order to make p & p worthwhile as it's £9.95
