I have to say, these are my current best sellers for crackers.
Last year they sold out and yesterday I got a huge order for 12 of these - and it’s only September!

I think I need to get a move on with some restocks. I made some like this but in red yesterday!

Do you like this design or would you like something in a different colour or pattern?

Good morning!
How fast did that weekend go!!

I’ve run out of books - I know!!! My book sleeve is now empty! I don’t like paying full price for books and usually go to the charity shop but I’ve just not had the time!

Isn’t this now fabric adorable for this book sleeve? It’s super soft and perfect for protecting your book or just something pretty to keep it in!!

Do you like the bows or are they a bit too girly for you?

Good morning!! Thank goodness it’s the weekend!!

Are you looking for a gift for the music lover in your life? How about this musical notes book sleeve? Perfect to keep your novel in your choir rehearsal bag like I do!!!

Do you play an instrument or sing? Do you have someone in the family who plays a musical instrument? 🎸

Morning!!

I forgot to put my zipper pouch in my work bag yesterday and I was lost without it!! It’s got all of my daily essentials and is the perfect size to pop in my bag!

I have a few different designs available in this style. I’m wondering if I should extend the range to have bigger and smaller ones too?

What do you think? What sort of size would you use?

Can you believe I have been sending out cracker orders already!!

So, let’s get into this! You can mix and match the crackers and buy as many as you need.

I provide hats and cheesy jokes so all you need to do is think of special gifts for the individual people.

New this year… what do you think of the care cards? There are lots of top tips about how to fill and re tie your crackers.

I have some new designs to add this year and also plan to do a fabric shop and restock in October half term so you have plenty of choice before the big day.

Would you go for mix and match or have them all the same design I wonder?

Last week I showed you my new Christmas Blind Date with a Book and some of you were wondering what was tucked in all the pockets!

So I made a little video to show you.

I’ve kept it simple and haven’t included and food items incase of allergies! There is a photo on my e t s y listing showing you what sort of book you ‘could’ receive!

Lots of you were also asking if there were other genres. Not at the moment but if these are popular I will branch out.

What other genres would you like to see? Is there anything else you would pop in the pockets?

Good morning!!! Well, my plan was to show you the squirrel bags I made last week but they sold out over the weekend so t...

Good morning!!!

Well, my plan was to show you the squirrel bags I made last week but they sold out over the weekend so there’s a change of plan 🤣

Nutcrackers!!! How adorable is this fabric?
I started making matching gift tags to go with my bags when I started making them a few years ago and have carried on… because the little details matter 😊

Now, if you gave someone a gift in a reusable gift bag, would you let them keep it or ask for it back so you could reuse it?? I’d love to know!!!!

Have you seen all the different sections in my Etsy shop? My favourites at this time of year are the reusable fabric crackers and the gift bags!

I like to try and have a wide variety of fabric choices so there’s something for everyone!

If you were to visit one section, which would you choose?

Some of you were were wondering if I have matching items available.

If you have been here a while, you will know the answer to that is yes 😊😊

What do you think of this gorgeous butterfly matching set of a book sleeve and glasses case?

I love to zoom in to look at this one as the detail in the fabric is beautiful.

One to add to your wish list for yourself or to gift to someone else?
