You've got to roll with it

The school PTA is hosting a Ball next month with a black and white/casino theme going on. Yours truly opened her big mouth at the wrong moment and has been roped into making table favours.



Seeing many spots before my eyes (and all over the living room floor). I've even roped hubby in to help, because there are a LOT of these to churn out. I'm not really that keen on them, but we had the little boxes donated to us and so I really needed to use them (in spite of the weird ribbon thing going on). Perhaps people will drink so much they fail to notice and we will make heaps of money.


And I've got a new blog for you to check out - Lululollylegs. We met as miniswap 2 partners and I couldn't believe someone as talented as Louise didn't have a blog. But now she does, and we all know how nice it is to get a warm reception in blogland so drop by and say hi!

Well I think they look great, weird ribbon thing and all.

I think they would look even better if Daniel Craig jumped out of one, either in the tux, or the trunks, I'm not fussy!!!

Oh, Daniel Craig!!! Actually, I'm not allowed to fancy him as there's some degree of relationship (through marriage & several stages removed) which makes it seem a little ... incestuous, I suppose. But.... it is a long way removed & it is through marriage... and doesn't every man look good in a tux? (My hubby does!)
The boxes are such a simple & effective idea... and don't you hate it when your mouth works independently of your brain? Have fun!

Well, I have just spent the day making Christmas wreaths (yes, it is April and Easter) for the school fete. And apparantly I am making centre pieces for the tables for the school's 75th anniversary dinner dance. A dinner dance! Yikes! So I totally relate to the making weird things that don't sit completely comfortably with you. But hey, better than asking for donations for prizes for the Trivia Night!
