Hello, I have just joined this fabby forum after lurking for a day or so as I am off work ill

I am hooked already:D

I was drawn to this particular bit as I am a crafty madam and love making my own cards and jewellery, which I often give as gifts. I am also very keen to try the fabby hamper ideas for individual pressies, with lots of thought

    Hi millie2008, welcome to the forum, everyone's lovely here and so much help and encouragement.
    The whole of MSE is fantastic, so many money saving ideas. I've only been here a bit but I seem to be getting so organised (never thought I'd use that sentence ever.)
    Hope you enjoy being here.
    Best Wishes.
