Christmas is coming and a BAT has landed !!

For those of you who came in the shop last week you may have noticed a bit of Christmas sneaking in, yes its here even though its only mid October. You may be like me and think Christmas before Halloween that's madness ! but not in the world of retail I'm afraid. Yes 5 of our crafters have made Christmas stock an its there for you to buy, and believe it or not some has already sold !

Clare Beale had made a batch of cute and colourful reindeer cards, Molly Pepper has been busy on her sewing machine running up some embroidered Christmas cards and I too have made a dozen cards. Jane from Plain Jane has made lovely robins and some red and green dotty Christmas fairy's to hang on your tree, the detail on them is great and that hair is just fab ! I too have made tree decorations, hand painted red and white dotty hearts and stars combined with wire, rusty bells, gingham and Cinnamon sticks. Heavenly soaps have packaged mini soaps in Small Christmas boxes and silver cracker boxes. All the items mentioned start from as little as £2.00 so come and take a look. More tree decorations are due by the end of the month by Recycled Hippies and Raggedy Revival.

Now for the bat............ If you have walked or driven by since Saturday you cant miss the pumpkin and bat cape hanging in the window. These are the latest capes by Sana of Raggedy Revival from her 'superhero cape' range. They are great and any little one will want one. My little boy has already put an order in with Santa for a blue superman one and a batman one ! They are very well made and machine washable and priced at £7.00. We only have 2 of each so if your little one still needs something for Halloween come and see us. I must just add if you don't come quick Sana's son will be in with the contents of his money box to buy the lot as he would rather they were all kept and home for him as opposed to mummy trying to make a

living !!
