Nacktschnecken omlet Cube

[Cinnamon]

I bought one of THESE as a stocking filler for a child in the family,but its so great I have kept it for myself & ordered several more to put in the hampers & so forth.

They will look great in the garden in the summer too - they really,really glow & are hugely tactile

[Lewis]

They make these in eggs too

 

I got one last year from Selfridges for £4

[Valkyrie]

Velly interlesting.

[Scramble]

I just 'Oooooh'd at that

 

I don't know why but I like things that glow, like the glow in the dark stars on my ceiling..but they've recently started falling off, have to be careful now

 

Probably get one for my sister

[The Dogmother]

Do they change colour?

 

I can see that Rosie would like that.

[Cinnamon]

Yep, red,pink,purple,blue,green & so on - they all blend into one another & its very pretty indeed.

[bluekarin]

another ooooooh here too They are really nice. Might have to get some for the nieces and nephews.

[LisaP]

More ooohs from here too! Been looking for something like this for my son who has ASD and finds it difficult to sleep.

 

Just happen to be registered on the M&S site too so will just pop off and click one into my 'basket'

Lovely! Just picked up a few stocking fillers

[Cinnamon]

Lets have some more stocking filler ideas here

 

I have adjusted the title of the thread,so we can all post lovely things we have found

[Chucky Mama]

These are fun http://www.snapcapp.com/ You can get them on eBay. I got a couple that were slightly different but I can't remember where I got them

[Olly]

Sorry, nothing to add but I'd like any suggestions for things to put in crackers. I've got some of those make-your-own crackers (purchased on sale in Waitrose in January!) and I need ideas for some small items that might fit inside a cracker. So far I've got some ear rings, well studs actually, but not much else.

I put a lottery ticket scratch card in mine when I did them last year.

[Old Speckled Hen]

I love these.

Great to put in a child's bedroom or the conservatory

[Charlottechicken]

Ooh, I like the M&S glowball

 

I love Hawkin's Bazaar for cheap and expensive oddities.

[Lewis]

I love Hawkin's Bazaar for cheap and expensive oddities.

... and me

 

Last year I bought a load of really cheap things from them and wrapped them up to put on the table for christmas and we all had instruments and had to play a christmas song

[majorbloodnock]

A few years ago, I bought a zipaway kite (from Brookite, and shown on http://www.brookite.com/acatalog/Mini_Flyers.html about half way down) and put it on my keyring. It keeps both kids amused at those times when they're starting to feel a bit bored, and since it's on my keyring we've always got it available.

[Valkyrie]

We put packets of seeds in the crackers for grandparents - we named the crackers so each had something personal. For the children - those magic expanding face flannels.

[Olly]

seeds and lottery tickets - what great ideas! Thanks, I think this year my group of girlfriends is each going to get a personalised cracker, and I'll spend a maximum of £5 on filling each one - appropriate seeds, a lottery ticket, a couple of chocs etc - I can't wait to get started! I might make some chocolate truffles myself.

 

Thanks for the suggestions, sorry I haven't added much in the way of stocking-filler answers. I do stockings for both my sisters, and usually it's those sample-size toiletries from Boots or Superdrug, a rolled-up magazine, little odds and ends I've picked up in craft fairs or bargain sales, and of course always a foil-wrapped chocolate coin and a tangerine in the toe.

 

(Sisters are 60 and 58 respectively, I should add!)

[Valkyrie]

Don't forget those jokes - there's a good supply on the other thread!

[Christian]

I ordered these cookie cutter

 

and this jigsaw

 

and

 

this car for my nephew

 

Next stop, Hawkins Bazaar!

[Cinnamon]

Christian,I saw all of those in M&S yesterday - especially love the puzzle & the cookie cutters

 

Actually there are lots of really lovely things in there this year

[Mrs Webmuppet]

I love Hawkins Bazaar for pressies. LMW is science mad so a few of their kits always end up in the basket and the stockings chez Webmuppet are judged to be incomplete without at least one clockwork bug/penguin etc.

[ubereglu]

I found that in Body shop they have brought back the animal soaps they used to have in the children's range this Christmas, so I may just have to buy a bag of them as stocking fillers for my family!

[Couperwife]

for stocking fillers or cracker fillers, what about some decent nail varnish

 

Glamour magazine has Nails inc nail varnish in this month, the magazine is only £2, so you get a nails inc nail varnish for £2

 

worth a look
