Well, what do you think

Pretty or what?



Take a packet of chocolate bars from Aldi.  I think they cost £1.29 for five bars... or thereabouts.  Gather up all those pretty little scraps of glitter card and ribbon that are too small to do anything with but too pretty to throw away. Maybe a heart cut from bit of holographic card would be nice.  Add some diamante ribbon and  a few bits of stick on bling. I bought mine from Home Bargains.  It cost £1 a roll and came in a variety of different designs. I have seen the diamante ribbon bling in The Works but the rolls of it  don't look as big. Et Voila…. Wouldn't they make nice table gifts. They would also be really pretty to give to teachers at the end of term. It doesn't need to be a Christmas gift.  Or howsabout making them with white glitter card and using them as wedding favours. You could make them in the wedding colours 

There are other flavours too




I made a couple of non glittery ones too as not everyone likes bling

    That is a great idea to jazz up many gifts, my daughter goes through tights as if she has a pet porcupine. I always buy her a few pairs for gifts and they come in boxes, definitely one to try. I have a drawer full of blingy bits from Home Bargains.

    Oh, those are so cute! You could also use up fabric scraps. I especially love the pink one, and the red heart with the lace.

    Gorgeous Cherie. I still have lots of scrapbooking papers that would cover chocolate bars beautifully.
