Christmas Stockings

More stuff for next months' craft fayre!! Unfortunately I can't knit to save my life but my mum was happy to produce these. Found a free pattern on the internet - the first couple took her 40 mins but once she knew the pattern they only took 20 mins to complete. I bagged and tagged them - the poem simply reads: 'The stockings were hung by the chimney with care In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there...' I did consider putting more choc coins in, but the way the sweets are really hold the shape of the stocking nicely so I stuck with what you can see.

EShaw Mint Tree Decs

Elizabeth Shaw Mints make the best tree decorations!! I love making these, the picture is of the first box load but I have done 2 more lots since then. It's so relaxing, and once my craft stuff is set up I can get through them fairly quickly. I did decide to bag them to make them look a bit more professional, and so they weren't clattering about and at risk of any bits falling off of them. Hoping to sell them for £1.50 a pack at the craft fayre.

I have done loads of green/red/gold ones but started doing some alternative colours as well.
