DIY SS reveal thread! Post your pics here!

NEED to go to bed and have been uploading 100+ photos so sorry just the one for now, thank you Santa!!!

We got a wonderful gardening set, a gardening apron for me and a matching one for the moomin , so cute, together with two wooden dibbers (hmm, anone been sawing wood????? ) and a midrowaveable heat pack and some sunflower seeds.

Thank you so much, they are beautifully made, and the labels were gorgeous - will post pics of the quote tomorrw when have more time. Martha was so taken with hers that it had to come to the cottage with us, and the heat pack helped keep her feet warm in the freezing wastes of Norhte Yorkshire



ETA - ph, and some Burts Bees soap!!!

hmmm I wonder who was sawing wood
Lovely gift x

Awwww they are gorgeous Ruth. I want to make a gardening apron like that for my friend in France with the organic farm!

Love the felt soaps and jewellery too they are so cute I fancy making them but not sure how they work

oooh that's fab! Love the dibbers! They look so well made too There are definitely some very talented CNTers out there

Um what's a dibber??

:oops: Um what's a dibber??

It's to make holes to put your seeds in to

I can't beleive she made them I thought they were bought, will have to see on the guess your sant thread!

Very glad you both liked every thing! The dibbers were going to be xmas trees I've made loads for the front room .. but when the gardening apron idea come up.. turn them over and... dibbers!!!!!! So left one pointed and sanded down the other one at the end so there were no *ouch* moments from your little girl They are waxed with raw beeswax if you ever need to re-wax them. I don't do much wood turning, I'm not that good at it, but a lathe is a very useful garage tool to have! Replacement handles for anything whenever you need them!

Ooh, I'm very lucky!

I got a lovely jewellery set, which is so nice and well made, and then some hot chocolate powder, with chocolate chips, mashmallows and a candy cane (which I assume is home-made )

All together, beautifully wrapped:



The lovely tag on my hot chocolate soup mix!



My beautiful earings, necklace and bracelet:

They're just my colours, and the bracelet is designed to fit my chubby wrists! thanks so much! I'm very happy!

Wow! definately worth waiting for!

It apparently came yesterday, but we were out so the postman gave it to a neighbour who brought it round tonight.

I got a fabby skinny scarf and some wrist warmers - in gorgeous peacock coloured yarn - they're so pretty and are going to be lovely and snug for the school run

Some chocolate unfortunately made the mistake of opening it infront of DH and kids - DS has already told me which bars are his favourite!

And all packed in a cute wooden tray which DD has nicked and is carrying round with random objects such as a key ring and a ball pool ball in it! Obviously she's been in too many restaurants as she appears to be waitressing!



And a fab poem which made me smile



I love it And the yarn is lovely colours and the knitting is fab - thank you so much
