It's beginning to look a lot like......


Christmas !    Yeah, we know, it's months away yet ! But we make our crafts by hand... and it really is time-consuming, so we start early, making a few things here and there, inbetween summer fairs. All the novelty boxes and bags are already printed, made up and stored til November, when the Christmas Fairs begin.  The photo above shows a plate of snowman faces, made in cream fleece with bright orange Fimo clay noses and black bead eyes, In America these types of decorations are called "bowl-fillers."
