    Blummin heck..............thank you guys! :o I think it's the box that sets them off, it's a recycled box from Mrs Bridge's chutneys etc, with Christmas ribbon round it :D

    Here are my flannel reindeer, can't tell you the difficulty of keeping their flippin noses on! :rolleyes:

    The green 'grass' is a microfibre car cleaning sponge, and that's now gone on a bed of 'hay' in a basket which looks quite presentable with the reindeer on top ;) As you can tell, I'm a bit naff at tying bows and I'd really liked to have added bells to them but hey ho............ran out of time as usual! :rolleyes:
