Well what a palaver this has been. The video we did yesterday was too large because I talked too much, so I did another one which is a bit ropey because Steven Speilberg was getting his haircut, so I was trying to video and do a demo at the same time. I have used a half completed box, so it looks a bit of a mess, ah well, you get the picture.....I am pleased with the box though, Alex will love it, and I am trying to find tiny things to put in the boxes. Off to Sephora to see if they have any tiny samples they can give me, I have put in lip gloss, tiny mints, eye shadow applicators, cosmetic sponges, earrings..... fun, fun, fun.
Enfys you did a great job.
ReplyDeletei love those little advent calendars. I might have to make these for my Grandbabies. TFS
Liked your video, but after reading what you wrote in your last post I was almost, no definitely, dissapointed not to get to see the first video! Have to admit reading it made me laugh out loud! Thanks for that.
