greenlady how did you get the lights in the lid?
Thank you!

Christmas has become a commercial "consumerfest " so its lovely to see someone making gifts if they can. (I appreciate that not everyone has the time.) My DD printed out a booklet of tokens of different massages she would do for me i.e foot massage, hand massage, etc last year ( still not done all of them yet!!) I made them all cushions one year from scrap fabrics. I try not to indulge grandchildren with too much plastic commercial stuff either.

I’ve given home-made sloe gin in little bottles in the past, but wasn’t well enough to go and pick the sloes this year, unfortunately. Thought I might do green tomato chutney and lemon curd in pretty jars this year.

Hi there
I became a Nana for the first time this year and I will be making a Peter Rabbit blanket with Minky backing as well as a Peter Rabbbit Advent calender that I havent attempted before. I will make both baby bibs and hats too .

I'm no expert but really enjoy it ...You tube is a great help ?

I used to do fudge and spent more time packaging up to make festive so small gold boxes or cellophane bags with ribbons. They were handy to leave at hall door and take one when heading out so doctors receptionist or girls at the swim pool etc. One year I did caramalised onion relish but now it can be bought so easily. Even the quality of fudge in shops has improved. I made festive facemasks last year... I think some more will be done this year!

Thanks everyone. Hope you enjoy making them.

You have inspired me to have a go! The Works and Hobbycraft are in the same retail park near me so I plan to pop out later today!

Thanks ginny, I think they work really well.

Those are lovely! Beautifully done.,

Notspaghetti trees are from ‘The works’ and the box frames ( 12 cm frame, just over 7 cms aperture ) and other bits and pieces were bought in Hobbycraft.

Lovely

I would love to receive one of these, you are very talented.

These are a good idea.
Well done.
What size are they and where are the box frames from?
They could be very useful.

Thanks for sharing.

Cute ??

They’re lovely ginny. You’ve inspired me so I must sort out some Christmassy bits.
