I didn't tell a fib in the Argos shop when I said I had a group of ladies who all wanted a catalogue and would it be alright to take a dozen.
"That's fine, take as many as you like" the assistant said.
Well they did have a crate full so I helped myself.
If you wondering what I want them all for, well its for
the first of my Christmas Workshops.
We are making Christmas trees out of - yes you guessed it - Argos catalogues.
I wonder if they will notice me sneaking in for some more
for my other workshops hee hee
Hee, hee, what we crafters do! I think I'll be picking one up just for the "Just Can't Wait" strip to go on an advent calendar. It looks like your tree will be super!
ReplyDeleteyou might be interested in this paper tree I made some years ago...
