Movie 3: Mixed Nuts
We decided to try out a couple of new movies this Christmas and here is the first... Mixed Nuts. We figured a Steve Martin Christmas movie from the 90's, what the hell. Check out the trailer here...

TeamDK: Christmas Labels

Here's a quick and easy Christmas label project. This is what you'll need...
- Some old style tags 
- A to/from stamp (this is optional) 
- An ink stamp pad (again optional)
- Some metallic pens 

My design is just a guide. I wanted to make some (sort of) handmade labels this year, and I'll be using these with some stag wrapping paper and vintage string (I'll be posting pictures of my wrapped presents Christmas eve). Go wild with your labels. I wanted to keep mine as simple as possible, to ensure they wouldn't clash with my chosen wrapping paper. This will add a fabulous handmade touch to your gifts this year. 

As you may have noticed... I didn't have a wooden stamp block, so instead I stuck the stamp to an old tupperwear lid.

And here are my finished labels... pretty simple, but I like them. Have fun making yours.

A Spot of Lunch at Charmed Interiors

Today we took a little trip to my folks. On the way we stopped off in Downham Market for a spot of lunch at the fabulous Charmed Interiors. We had a couple of delicious sandwiches and a piece of Gluten Free Dime Bar cake each (very naughty). After a little look around it was off to Kings Lynn for a spot of shopping, then a large hot coffee from Costa for the journey home. All in all, a good day!

If you're ever in Downham Market, be sure to check it out.

Christmas Movie Countdown: 2

Movie 2: The Ice Harvest
Not the most Christmas-y of films, but it is set over the Christmas period. A little bit of crime, black humour and murder, what more could you want from a movie? Plus it's directed by Harold Ramis! Check out the trailer here...
