crafty for christmas 2008

I used to buy my wheat at Mole Valley farmers where they sold it for chicken food. I think any farmers centre would sell it quite cheaply

Not cotton wool, pom poms, its really just to stop the snowman soup rattling about in the cup lol

The bows were from Asda £1.97 for 20.

Its all been made for an xmas fayre i'm doing on Friday :eek: (except the teachers gifts of course)

And i've done NO tags or labels and the printer is out of ink and its all going wrong haha, hopefully hubby will remember his promise to buy more ink tomorrow

Bravobeastie -brilliant !! You have been busy :T

Was doing pots of gold last night - got no ribbon and was going to get that today then oldest foster lad said he'd paint the front of the house so I thought I'd best stay at home and keep an eye.
Younger foster lad (having laughed his socks of at everything I've done..........lol) now want to make three pots of gold for his sisters for Christmas !! You should have seen us trying to concoct them in little bowls with cellophane,............lolManaged to find three jars that will do...........now it'll be 'hunt the choccy coins'............woolworths had sold out yesterday after I bought the last lot !!
Was all set to wrap a couple of shoe boxes in brown paper ready to post and ran out of parcel tape !!! Oldest lad has fetched me some now so I can get on with that. I feel I'll never be finished at this rate :eek:
