Basket case!!

I have basket'd (is that a word!?) up some of the things for the fair and im really excited now! lol How sad is that! LOL The kids laughed at the snowman poop when they came in from school today so i think that one might go down well with the other kids at school :)

How sweet are these?!

I got the idea from a couple of the threads on MSE. They are bars of soap wrapped in a facecloth and made to look like little reindeers! How cute are they? Super easy to do too so lots of fun for the kids to join in with too :) The white mugs behind are being stamped and turned into kiddies chocoholic mugs :D

I have also made 6 of these chocolate sets - fine china mug, hot chocolate sachet, chocolate finger biscuits, marshmallows and a sugar stiring stick from Whittards of Chelsea :) I still have the snowman soup to make as my cones didnt arrive today as expected but im kept busy anyway so maybe thats a good thing! LOL

Buttons galore!!

ADDED:- Ive just finished bagging up my bunting and i think it looks ok - what do you think??I have just watched the best film i have seen in a while -August Rush! Its such a heart warming adorable film that its now on my Christmas list. I recommend it to anyone out there who wants a sweet, everything you wish for, dreams can come true kind of film :)

While i sat watching it i pinned all these buttons onto my Christmas star. It didnt take too long concidering how many buttons and pins were used (no, i didnt count!) LOL

Bunting :)

I have just finished sewing the beads and flowers onto my first finished length of bunting :) Its shown here on the head of my bed to show the length of 10 points :DBeen shopping today and bought lots more envelopes etc so i can finish the sets of cards off too. Im making broth this afternoon so im having a crafty day finished off with comfort food - what could be better! :D

A little birdhouse in your soul....

I have had that song going round in my head since i saw this cute little project! Thank you so much to Nichole Heady for the template - i am going to make a load of these little birdhouses and pop them on my cream tree for Christmas :) (this isnt finished off properly as i just wanted a quick go to see if it was simple to do - it is simple and Nichole is a genius!)

Edited to add:- I just finished some more for my tree - these are addictive! LOL

Chaos, cards and TFIF!!

Thanks to Claire for the fab card display boxes! I have placed some of the cards in there and i cant believe the difference it makes to the presentation! White table cloths are bought, i now have some fab snowflake paper to decorate the middle of the table and a lot more bits have been made and are in the process - including lots and lots of handbag cards! lol Look at the chaos! ARGGHH TFIF as i really need a lie in - must read more of my book and try to chill as the Christmas fever is starting to hit home!

Pink'd out!!

Its like an explosion in a Pepto Bismol factory here lately! Especially since my October PINK swap parcel came today from the lovely Elaine :) Isnt she a star, look at all these goodies!I also made some pink bunting but im waiting for the binding to arrive so have temp sewn it onto ribbon to see if it looks ok :)
