I recently bought some clay, but wasn't sure what I wanted to do with it. Jewelry making is a fun option. Have a great weekend. :)Ericahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07376366527875243849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7943215874918874637.post-91256360663421300552012-12-07T14:51:08.498+10:002012-12-07T14:51:08.498+10:00I think a little friendship bracelet is the perfec...I think a little friendship bracelet is the perfect girlie gift. I wouldn't mind learning to do that too (having missed the craze the first time around!). I have some clay at home for necklaces and I really need to get to that for the presents pile.

I love all the shades you've made, especially the soft yellow. I think your craft kits are a wonderful idea- I was thinking the other day that if anyone asked me what to Grace, I was going to suggest a bag of craft stuff - paper, pom-poms, pipe cleaners etc. You are so good with your handmade gifts, I'd hope to make more myself this year but it hasn't eventuated. Perhaps next year :) Enjoy your Thursday evening xAmandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14697932926715802541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7943215874918874637.post-85361009917244796562012-12-06T15:26:27.449+10:002012-12-06T15:26:27.449+10:00You are very clever with your different ideas for ...You are very clever with your different ideas for gifts and activities, thank you for the inspiriation xxWendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15485385130786077543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7943215874918874637.post-61040139784356493422012-12-06T12:52:32.019+10:002012-12-06T12:52:32.019+10:00Oh I love working wih clay.
