I'm very pleased with myself

So you should be!

He is amazing baaa!

I am almost embarrassed to post mine now but I just finished stamping my wrapping paper. Yes I have wrapped nothing yet

(I checked and the ink I used is ok for recycling)

That gorilla is utterly amazing! Where did you get the pattern?

I love that paper Emma! I'd like to do that next year, but I think I might need to start stamping it in August!

I downloaded the pattern from etsy (£6ish) and then printed it onto card.

I love the wrapping paper, Emma! Really simple yet beautiful.

I like the animals too. Very effective and pleasing.

[Squirrel]

That’s so pretty Emma.

[smalex]

The gorilla! That's so good.

The paper is supercute. Have you stamped enough for everything?!

[emma_p]

I went through two ink pads!

W & I made crackers! I did buy the proper cardboard nets for them, but they were too skinny to fit any of the gifts into! So we went back to wrapping paper. And accessorised with mini toadstools I've had on the craft cupboard for yonks

Not the best photo but I managed to finish these wee stockings before the big day. The kids usually have big fancy JL ones, but they get in the way of the fireplace. Their named wooden stars from the old ones are too big so I'll need to sort something else out for next year.

[Pippedydeadeye]

So cute!

Not the greatest picture. My mum made me these reusable gift bags and totes out of an Indian throw I've had in the loft for years.

[Marth]

I love those, Brier

Thank you. I've been eyeing up a few myself now!

I'm so impressed with all the gift wrap and bags. I tried to use paper tape this year, but it just wouldn't stick, so I'll need to invest in some proper paper packing tape for next year.

[Kleio]

So many great things! I love the sacks and stockings, the crackers are cute and that gorilla is EPIC.

[Squirrel]

This page are all wonderful! What perfect fabric Beatrix .

The reusable gift bags are great, I wonder if I could do the same, I’ve got masses of scrap fabric.

Those stockings are so cute.

Smal I love your crackers, we used to have mini toadstools on our tree when I was a child, that has given me a big nostalgia pang. What did you put inside them?

[smalex]

The kids got little toys (Ws is a pooping llama keyring which hes delighted about), the older dads got a little LED keyright light thing, the younger dads got mini marmalade, mum got hand cream and my sister and i got hair slides. And a scratch card each.
