Sadly we’ve come to the end of this year’s Christmas Countdown Series and in this last episode I have a money wallet for you. We all end up with gifts that perhaps aren’t to our taste, and giving cash as the main present makes my life so much easier. Consequently, I always like to make my […]

Christmas Countdown Series #11 of 12 – Spirited Snowmen Stocking Filler
Eek! I can’t believe this is the penultimate episode of my 12 week Countdown to Christmas Series!

Hexagon Dynamic TIEF and Chooks!

This is the ultimate “Home” set! Not only do you use it for someone moving to a new home, but it’s got fabulous spooky goodness and best of all, Santa in his sleigh with his reindeer! I consolidate the list of supplies at the end of the video to make it easier for you […]
