    Christmas gift ideas!

    Well there are only 17 shopping days until christmas ... about 10 if you hate the massive crowds... So I thought she should start compiling a lil list of things that would be good for different people, and then it can be added to and everyone can get amazing presents!
    Giving is the best part of christmas for me, I love putting lots of thought into presents so I thought this could help everyone!!

    1. 'Sparkles' By Louise Bagshawe - Best book I have read, EVER. This book would be awesome for any girl who loves a book with a bit of mystery and a bit of romance. Totally amazing because each chapter was about a different character and then they all mixed together. I stayed in bed all monday because I could not put it down. My mum was the same with it before she gave it to me! http://www.shorelibraries.govt.nz/To...dbcn=b21543720
    I'm gonna make it so PC

    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Hmmm..... looks good for Mrs B's Santa stocking. Thanks for that - we always do little presents for each other like exotic foods, CD's and some tasteless tat!

    This year, we're buying a joint main present - external art for the bach! Have a look at: http://www.sarahcdesign.co.nz/gallery.html. We're going to but the Nikaus at Colville piece. Appropriate really seeing we are only half an hour south of there.

    Have a good one!

    Somewhat embarrassing to admit, my annual bonus has been depleted and Christmas is tight this year. I will be making bedroom slippers for gifts.

    You'll most likely agree that it's a splendid idea, and should you wish to do the same, I've included the instructions below:

    How to make bedroom slippers out of maxi pads:

    You need four maxi pads to make a pair.

    Two of them get laid out flat, for the foot part.

    The other two wrap around the toe area to form the top.

    Tape or glue each side of the top pieces to the bottom of the foot part.

    Decorate the tops with whatever you desire, silk flowers (this is most aesthetically appealing), etc.

    These slippers are:
    * Soft and Hygienic
    * Non-slip grip strips on the soles
    * Built in deodorant feature keeps feet smelling fresh
    * No more bending over to mop up spills
    * Disposable and biodegradable
    * Environmentally safe
    * Three convenient sizes: Regular, Light day, and Get out the Sand Bags.

    I've attached a photo of the first pair I made so that you can see the nifty slippers for yourself....

    I think I'll buy my sister 2-3 kilos of lollies wholesale off TM. Buying my dad a new pair of overalls, as I wrecked his. May buy my brother a 97cc upgrade kit for his scooter. Mum... still thinking.
