Anyone else making things for Christmas fairs?

No idea why I typed Epsom twice, and also "put them Kilner" should be "put them in Kilner" ...

I made rose scented bath salts last year with Epsom (Epsom) magnesium salts bought from the chemist, mixed with Himalayan Pink Salt bought in a big container from Lidl, added a few drops of rose essential oil and put them Kilner style in bottles bought from Poundland, fancy ribbon around and hand written label.

The gifts were a big hit and really easy to make. I'm almost certain the "recipe" was on Gransnet...

I also have knitted Christmas puddings to fit over ferrero chocs, and knitted mini Christmas stockings filled with a finger of fudge. Good way to use up odd balls of wool.

There are some free patterns for christmas things on www.loveknitting.com
Trees/penguins/ornaments etc.

I now remember that I have also made knitted Terry's Chocolate Orange covers in the shape of robins, Santa hats, oranges, and puddings. Lots of free patterns on line.

Last year I made pudding cookies, individually bagged.

One year I made present sacks from cheap red pillow cases from Asda. I gathered the tops with twisted wool drawstrings and appliqued shapes on the front with iron-on adhesive using felt or fabric. The designs were simple like puddings, parcels, trees with button 'lights', and snowflakes using templates from the internet. They all sold within a few minutes of the stall opening.
I went on to make one for each of my GCs with their initials in giant letters and still use them every year despite the presents getting smaller as they get older!

I knitted 20+ Bobble Hats for the Christmas Shop and someone else did about a dozen. All sold like hot cakes. The white rib & white bobble on red (like a Santa hat) was particularly popular. 2nd favourite - dainty ones knitted with white + silver wool.

I crotched retro toilet roll covers one year and they were a hit .

Auntieflo little hats sound right up my street for dressing the table at Christmas- can you point me in the right direction for a pattern please, if you don't mind ?

Sewing an advent calendar for the local school. they choose a winning pocket and then sell tickets numbered from 1 to 25. The person who has the winning number gets the advent calendar.
Raises £25 easily, as opposed to selling the calendar for £10.

Nanabilly, I was going to suggest the Ferrero Rocher hats. I have made them for several Christmases, they always go down well, and they are quick to make.
Fudge and tablet is also popular, as are miniature marzipan fruits.

I knitted small pumpkins last year for a craft sale and also made a knitted door wreath. That was very much admired but took ages to make. Also Christmas pudding tea cosies.
A friend made some very pretty crochet book marks which sold well.

I tried felting but kept missing and jabbing my fingers and thumb instead.
However, a young relative has made some lovely things.

Mini Christmas stockings to decorate the tree.A small bar of chocolate can be put in each.

My friend does felting, it’s quite therapeutic as you use a rather shRp needle to jab at the wool.

Someone I knew from my craft club some years used to crochet little Christmas pudding "hats" to fit onto individual ferrero richer chocolates and she sold them in sixes. She must have sold hundreds of them .
She also sold them packed into ferrero rocher plastic boxes . I used to put mine out in a nice dish or plate and offer them to guests. Always a talking point.

Well, I was just thinking I ought to - lavender sachets maybe?

As I've just received that book, perhaps some ornaments if I have time.

Fudge or something similar in nice cellophane bags?
