Preparations for the Christmas coffee morning

Home/Uncategorized/Preparations for the Christmas coffee morning

There was plenty to do to get ready for our Christmas themed coffee morning which was to be held at the end of November.

We set about creating all sorts of lovely things. These included; snowmen, pipe cleaner  teddy bears (which we used to make into tree ornaments, and to sit on gold sweet boxes). There were also different an assortment of flannel folding designs to make and get ready to display.

New for this year we decided to make some sweets. These were delicious; there was coconut ice, rum truffles, and chocolate fudge. The were all packaged up to look festive as you will see.
