Christmas was just lovely this year. We went to Sarah and Chris (daughter and future son-in-law) for Christmas this year along with my parents, Mark's mum, Kelly (oldest daughter) with her husband Jimmy , my two favourite little people in the whole wide world, Ronnie and Millie and my son Alex.....12 of us in all for Christmas dinner....it was a bit of a squish but so worth it if you can get all your family together under one roof for a day.
Ronnie is 3 and Millie is just 20 months. They were so good all day. Millie managed to eat her whole body weight in food....I have no idea where she puts it....she really does have hollow legs.
This has to be my favourite picture taken over the whole of the Christmas holidays, Grandad reading Millie's new book to her...those kids just melt me to slush!!!
Okay....Christmas over....now to the giveaways. As you know, classes go on sale on Saturday 2nd January 2010 which also happens to be the start of our January sale and as a thank you gift for your continued support, I have put together 33 goody bags. I know what you are thinking....33....really strange number....well, there is a method to my madness. To qualify for one of these, the first thirty people in the shop to either book a class or spend over £25.00, will become the lucky owner of a goody bag. If you are unable to get to the shop, you still have a chance to win one by leaving a comment here on the blog. We will randomly pick three winners after the 2nd January and will be happy to mail them to you.
So it's time to wish you all a very Happy New Year and I hope to see you on the 2nd.
Stay warm, Lin

Lovely photos and thank you for my receipt - I am coming on one of your weekends! Hip Hip Hooray!
The photo of Mark and Millie is great I can understand why it's your favourite photo.
Wish I could get to your shop for the 2nd but it's a little too far for a day trip. :)
So wish I could get to one of your classes. The projects look wonderful. I'll have to keep my fingers crossed for a goody bag instead. Happy New Year!

Your Christmas sounds lovely. How I would love to make it to your shop, but sadly it is too far away from me. The chance to win a goodie bag would be lovely though - so fingers very crossed!!

Can't wait to see all the inspiration you show us in 2010. I have a feeling the coming year will be creative for everyone.
Sounds like you really enjoyed your squashy Christmas!

Can't get to the shop but just want to say great photos and thank you for all your inspiration. Happy new year
Your classes sound fab - what a shame I am too far away to attend one! However, a goody bag would be very welcome! Wishing you good luck for 2010 and thanks for the chance to win.

Wish I could come to the sale, but I live too far away. Here's hoping I might be one of the 3 lucky winners
Great to see you had such a fantastic time and love the photo. The grandchildren do make Christmas so magical. Nothing can ever match the feeling! Happy New Year Linda, Sue and Paul x
If I could come, I would be there!!! But as it's a bit far for me to travel, I'll just add my comment and see what happens. In any case, even if I don't win a goodie bag, I know I have an order which will be in the mail soon!! HAPPY NEW YEAR and I'll be in touch very soon. Have been with the PIL and so have been TOTALLY out of touch recently.
Love to you all from me - Sally in France xx
Wishing you a very happy new year, Lin!
I wish I could come to see you and have a browse around your shop and pick up a few sale bargains, but alsas, you are just tooo far away, but thanks for the chance of a goodie bag though - so thoughtful
Happy 2010 xxxx
I would love to get to one of your classes but being down in the south makes it difficult-still, with blogs and youtube videos we are able to try SO many different techniques. If my hubby stays still on the sofa long enough he'll be inked and distressed like everything else in the house! Happy 2010.
Could you open a satellite shop further south?!! Can't be at the shop but would love to win a goody bag! Happy New year.
Thanks for sharing those lovely photos Linda!
Wish I lived a bit nearer and could visit the shop!
Happy new year!
Alison xx
It is lovely to see your family Christmas with your grandchildren - it is priceless! Happy New Year!

Your grandchildren are soooo sweet !!!
Can't make the shop and or workshops :-( although my credit card is probably breathing a sigh of relief after all the Christmas spending!!! So I'll keep my fingers crossed for a goody bag instead.
Happy New Year

Afraid I can't make a visit to the shop or your workshops from down here in deepest Somerset - how I wish I could. Lovely photos and glad you enjoyed your Christmas with the family - nothing better. Thanks for the chance of winning a goodie bag - will be keeping everything crossed (even if people look at me strangely!!!! lol
Happy New Year to you all.
Hi Lin
I am not going to be able to be at the shop tomorrow but plan to give you a ring to try and get in the queue for booking! It's almost as bad as trying to get a GP's appointment!! Fingers crossed!

happy new year to you and your family
I'm hoping to get to your shop this morning but just in case I don't make it due to bad weather I'll keep my fingers crossed for a goodie bag instead we have had our first fall of snow so heres hoping I make it

If I had a car, I'd be there!! The Christmas photos are so great, how cute do Millie and Mark look! See you at Stevenage.
