    Default Can anybody help me - pleeeeaaaase!

    Hope that somebody can help me because I have a feeling that my cry for help will be as clear as mud!

    I am making things for a stall at our local school christmas market. I am making cards, bookmarks, coaster calanders etc. When I visited Scarborough in the summer holidays I saw in a jewellery shop, some bead bracelets with a heart charm and a handmade label attached saying something about making a wish. I am hoping to do something similar and have bought some red and green beads and made up some elasticated bracelets with one silver heart coloured bead, but I'm stuck about a verse or thought for my label. I want to say something about making a christmas wish but I'm rubbish at expressing myself. Can anybody help - I'd be very grateful. I'm aiming these at children buying for themselves or their friend or mum etc, so they don't have to be very profound sayings.

    Many thanks

    What a lovely idea Sam. Unfortunately I'm like you - I can never think of what to say. But I'm sure someone will come to your rescue soon. Cxx

    Sam, I'm rubbish at sayings so I can't help. Try selling reindeer food instead it's easier, we sold tons of it last year (oats and glitter). It was our best seller, don't know why we bothered making cards!

    Not quite sure what you are after but assuming it's a message from the giver to the recipient how about:

    "What you wish for my heart wishes for you"

    or

    "May you be granted your heart's wish"

    How about a twist of "wish upon a star " and use "wish upon a heart"

    "Wishes can come true, but only if you BELIEVE :heart:" (just a thought from me x)

    At the childrens hosptal I help at the teabar and we made loads with raindeer food. It is something I had never heard of before but nurses doctors and parents all asked for it.

    Wishes don't come true overnight, they sneek up unexpected

    your own wishes may not always come true so make a wish for someone else.

    Wishes are free so give generously
