I have agreed to post this entry from Snaffles Mummy as she does not want to spoil any Christmas surprises for her friends. More of Snaffles Mummy’s ideas for a Thrifty Christmas can be found here.
So, I will now hand over to Snaffles Mummy…..

Firstly I would like to thank Liz for posting this for me.
I am so excited about my latest Thrifty Christmas creation that I am desperate to go running to show my best friend it. However, I am having to restrain myself because my creation is for my friend. I am also intending to keep it a secret from my other friends too as I think it can easily be adapted to different designs.
My inspiration came from the Tesco Christmas magazine for a Union Jack Christmas Card Holder. My best friend is loving all things Union Jack at the minute so rather than a card holder I thought it would work just as well as a notice board.
All instructions can be found on the Tesco website. It was very quick and simple to make and can be done in any colour combinations. I managed to locate all supplies at Boyes for less than £7. I have seen smaller versions in shops on sale for £15.
So, here is the finished article. I cant wait to get started on other colour combo’s.

I thought a notice board would be great too when I saw it in the Tesco magazine! Great make!
I love it. How very creative. I think I will have to have a go for our kitchen. At this rate I will have presents for next year as well!!
Brilliant!!
VERY COOL!
