Well I have to be honest getting ready for the School Christmas fair was hard work but was made all worthwhile when you sore all the children having so much fun.
I had my own stall with lots of cards & jewelery i had made. I also designed & made some lovely items for the P.T.A craft stall.
The marshmallows were a great hit I had made 30 with a little help from Elizabeth and I think had if I'd made 60 they would all have sold. They were simple to make and looked great! I started by separating the pink marshmallows from the white. All the pink ones were dipped in milk chocolate and the white were dipped in chocolate & then hundreds and thousands. Once they were dry I laid them in a long line one pink followed by one white till there were 9 they were raped in clear film and a little ribbon tied at each end.
The fudge was a little more difficult but worth it, very scummy! I bought some clear sweet bags from the Internet for these and again tied with ribbon.
I made three different flavours all based with chocolate then added nuts, cherry's or apricots.
So after a busy Friday (apart from the lovely pre fair lunch :-) thanks every one) I didn't do much yesterday at all apart from get this card ready for mum's birthday. Love you mum x
The tag comes out of this card so you can use it as a book mark.
