Wow - that's so cool!

Would you be able to do a Thunderbird 2 for the middle of October?

(Ps - shameless plug - have you seen my personalised train bunting......??!!)

Thanks and no not seen your banner LOL... where can it be found?

It wont be a problem doing a thunderbird - if you want! Give us an email
and we can go from there.

I think while the wedding rush is quiet, I may go into kiddies toppers as well as my christmas stock - what do you think?

With regard to kid's toppers - definitely!!

Especially if it's things that you won't find in the shops - like Thunderbirds (although I'm not sure what the copyright rules are?

[Bowed Over]

Definitely go for the kiddies that is excellent and I know your grandson (Robert I take it!) will love it.

Cheers.

Lol Lisa, do I talk about my grandkids that much that you remember their names?

thanks all - I did make him an iggle piggle last month and grandaughter has an upsy daisy on order - plus eldest grandaughter has put her order in for her birthday toppers next month.........she wants Beauty and the Beast!!

Last year I did her the 7 rainbow fairies and anybody who has a little girl will know who I am on about.......I think I did post a picture of them on the cake in craft juice but not sure if it got published!

Great job, that must have used a lot of clay? is it solid clay throughout or did you use tin foil core or something.

Well done

I did'nt use any foil, to be honest, I forgot to do so......LOL... but thankfully its not at all heavy and will stand fine on the cake without sinking! The two carriages are hollowed out, which makes it even lighter as well.

That's brilliant, I'm sure Robert will love it.

Ooooh - you did an Iggle Piggle and an Upsy Daisy. I might be in touch about a birthday in November! Although she does want a night-time fairy cake - the fairy must have glittery wings and have stars shining Is 4 too young to tell her that she'll get what she is given??

I think the train is great and I'm sure your grandson will be very pleased with it - well done.
I'd love to see the Upsy Daisy. I sometimes call DD Iggle Piggle and she always says 'no, I'm upsy daisy' No birthdays coming up here but they would have been great on Shelleys cake instead of the pink butter cream covered ruin that was supposed to be a fairy castle cake that I tried to produce for her birthday. I am afraid to say I had to make a quick dash to Sainsburys to buy her a cake, first time I've given a shop bought cake in my 5 years of being a mummy. (Kids were probably relieved LOL)

Thanks a lot for your comments - I think no matter how many items we make, we still need that little bit of encouragement to be told that yes, it is well enough to show off and maybe sell at some point!

Have to tell you though that I'm kind of having fun telling everybody that because he's 2 and its got number 2's over the engine, I have called it the:

2 2 train!! ............LOL, now stop groaning!

Pauline

ps... I will post pictures of upsy daisy when I have done her, along with iggle piggle. I probably also have to make macapacka and he nicky nonks next!! Where on earth did they come up with these names and is there a child in the country that does NOT watch 'The Night Garden'???

[indri]

Very cool train... I bet he'll love it!
