    Great reindeer Rusty, we've made a few but want to make some more. I wondered the same about wrapping them and thought it best to leave them as they are, maybe adding a tag as mentioned above.

    Your son must be so chuffed to see his reindeer on the front page - he's famous!!!

    My son and I have been busy this afternoon (whilst littlest one was sleeping) Managed to knock up 9 reindeer. All complete. :)

    Then I decided to wrap one in cellophane and oh my life what a nightmare, it looks rubbish! I am thinking maybe cello bags would help? Any suggestions?

    Erm Blimey. Trying to think. The instructions I used were here: http://www.kckpl.lib.ks.us/ys/CRAFTS/Ratrein.htm
    If you can give me a couple of hours then I can do a tutorial with pics etc for you. Sorry but I am only on here quickly before I nip into town. Hope this is ok.

    Hi Nutty, I bought the bells from this seller here

    http://shop.ebay.co.uk/merchant/k2-accessories_07?_nkw=bells&_fromfsb=0&_trksid=m270.l1313

    These are the bells she has on at the moment, Mine are 8mm but silver although I imagine the coloured ones would also be pretty and also different. They arrived really fast (the next day but was normal first class postage) and I couldn't have asked for a better service.
    Hope this helps.
