    I got these rabbits in the January Sales and have had the towels for ages and only just got round to making them up.
    Am in the middle of making 2 blue ones the same.
    Can I ask if anyone likes one more than the other? - Pink or White Ribbons? :confused:

    Moonpenny: love the cakes...pink ones are always my favourite

    well here are some pics of the ribbons i bought. thought it best i didn't show the whole lot or else you'd be here all night.

    Most range from 50 cents to a couple dollars. total cost of all these plus the same again, plus 4 pink teddies, a couple smaller neutral ones, 4 pairs bootees, eyes for my monkeys,12 small straw boater hats( for monkeys)etc. was around $34.

    Am burning the midnight oil again!

    Glad you enjoyed your first day Candy! Wish I could find something – there is nothing around here (Retail) Beginning to think I will never work again!

    Irlrip, lovely cake and a novel idea. Love the blanket.

    Candy, I am on the lookout for “neutral” stuff as well but am finding it a problem. Plenty of stuff about but you either get plain cream or if there’s a pattern then they are for boys.
    Good Luck! with the shop offer.

    Where do you all get the Gund butterflies from, and are they expensive? I saw some bees etc (think they were Gund) in a shop in town and they were really expensive. Really cute though – I would have loved them.

    Chatty – You have got some fab supplies. I like the flowery ribbons – getting bored with gingham and spots.

    Popkins – I just use Pampers size 2 nappies. They are a bit off white and they show a bit of yellow on one end when they are rolled.
    Thanks for lovely comments on my cakes but have spent all evening taking them to bits. (The outside of them) I thought they looked too fussy and too many bows so I have redone them. Will post when I get round to it.

    I felt like that too, I was after admin work, but they asked me if I wanted to try it out, and at least I'll have cover for DD with the school holidays. Plus it's so nice to see my daughter playing with her friends too in the afternoons.

    I've given in and made up a pink one, if they like it, well they can just order a neutral one (hopefully).
    A creative mess is better than tidy idleness :D
