ahh, the lovely white stuff!

It's finally snowing! We don't often get settle snow so wrapped up in their winter scarfs, a few of our little buddies decided to head outside for some fun!
Hooley's arms were a little too short to make a snowman, so he decided to make some snowballs instead. It took him a long time but he was very pleased with his efforts. He managed to build himself a nice snowball pyramid!
He had to be reminded repeatedly NOT to lick the snow!
Luke and Marlon then decided to join in and use his newly made snowballs to have a snowball fight.....much fun was had by all!

Christmas Fair Update

After a busy few weeks we've come to the end of our Christmas shows. It's been an eventful few weeks with back to back fairs in a number of local schools and colleges - they were so much fun and lots of sock buddies found new homes for the holidays. Thanks to everyone who came out and did their holiday shopping. It's great that so many people still love to give handmade one of a kind gifts and help support us crafters!
Last night was our last show of the year. Every buddy wanted to have a last chance to find a new family so they all managed to squeeze themselves onto the table. There were a few fisticuffs as some of the buddies jostled for position at the front, but overall they were all happy to be on display!
So a huge thank you to everyone who took home a buddy. We hope they'll make fab Christmas pressies or great new additions to your family, and don't forget, why not send us a photo of your buddy in it's new home and we'll feature you on our blog!
So now we're taking a couple of weeks of for Christmas and then we'll start back up stitching ready to re-stock our stores for the New Year. Here's to a busy 2011!
