Personalised Christmas Baubles.

**monkeymia** · 12-06-2007, 09:07 PM

There is a stall in the shopping mall that is making personalised Christmas Baubles, you know the balls with your name written in glitter. They are $7.50 each and I really wanted 3.

My mum said I could do it cheaper so I ranked my brain thinking of what to use, I have glitter alphabet stickers here (I am a scrapbooker) so I went and priced the baubles yesterday, $3.70 for 8.

I put them in the shopping trolley, did the checkout and thought wow that was cheaper than I expected, got home and couldn't find the baubles, yep they weren't scanned and are still sitting on the counter at the store. Lol

What a way to save money.

Now I have to go back in there and pick them up after our photography shoot tomorrow. Lol

LOL, I have done that several times with various things. I really panic when I get home too and can't find the item or items. Sometimes though, you paid for it but they just didn't bag it. I alway's put my receipts in a special place in my wallet so I don't loose them, so I can check it if I'm missing something.

Please post a pic of the ornaments when you finish them. I would love to see them.

My daycare lady did this for Wesley last year...She took clear ornaments, then wrote the kids name on them in that pretty 'puffer paint' like stuff, then tied a ribbon around the top of it.

I've done that before, at least they weren't on your reciept! It's even more frustrating when you've already paid for them, and then get home and they are not there!

I was thinking of making everyone ornaments this year too. I'd love some ideas, so I hope you post a pic once you've finished them!
