I'm excited this year too, drawing up a list of presents at the minute

I'm thinking of knitting cotton wash cloths and maybe learning how to make soap or maybe just buy soap and create a little basket for my mom and MIL. And I'm also getting calendars and a few other things on Shutterfly with the baby's pics.

^^ Making melt & pour soap is REALLY easy, I made a hamper of it for my Mum last year

 

[hakunamatata]

Neat! Are there any helpful websites you recommend?

 

[Kate&Lucas]

I learned the basics from this website - https://teachsoap.com/basic-melt-and-pour-soap/
And got the ingredients and things from here - https://www.gracefruit.com/

 

[hakunamatata]

Yay thanks!!!

 

[hakunamatata]

Just bookmarked those. The soap making seems pretty easy. My mom loves coconut so I'd probably get one of those oils.

I'm going to get Fran a nice pram for her birthday. My mil works at B&M and she says they usually get some silver cross ones in closer to Xmas - plus she can get me staff discount

 

[hakunamatata]

That's nice!

Found a bargin in mothercare today, a baby einsteine ocean gym for £35. Been keeping an eye out on a offer for a decent one so really pleased. Have also started buying bits to make a craft box for my DS. Are 2 year olds any good with glueing and sticking things(googly eyes etc)?
