Good Christmas

Hi We've had a great Christmas lots of family here and my little neice who's 4  thinks she's in Sugar Cubes heaven. It's lovely to see how important the characters are to that age as my daughters are now true teenagers, boys and makeup, and ponies are less important though I've started to ride our last remaining pony and it's great, means we can keep her a bit longer. I was worried I would be too big but the farrier told me I would be fine and Diamond seems to think so too. We made her a Pony mag Christmas cake which was in their mag a few year's ago. You get a small round loaf, hollow it out and cut up some carrots and apples, mix them with some of their food, put it all back in the loaf with the lid on she loved it, she ate all the bread first.

Christmas Orders

I'm getting quite excited about Christmas now, all my kids have broken up and the house is decorated. All our orders have now gone out 1st class and are in the hands of Royal Mail. So I really hope everyone gets their orders for Christmas. It has been fun printing them and packing them up to send out. Now I must get stuck into some designing for next years new prints.
Have a good Christmas.

Hi we are still posting out, and touch wood at the moment the 1st class post isn't taking very long.
If anyone still wants to place an order, today would be good so it can be on it's way tomorrow at the latest.
We will still be posting out over the holidays but obviously not in time for Christmas.
Thanks to everyone for their support this year and hope you all have a great Christmas.

December

It's the 1st of December, I love Christmas, all the decorations, even the really tacky over the top ones on houses. I love the cheerfulness of all the colours. 
It's been really cold here and I've been getting our pony in at night, she's been practically racing in, but I think that's more for her food than to get out of the cold. 
Things have been getting busy at Sugar Cubes and the packages going out look so nice. It's so personal to me as I've designed them all and do a lot of the printing so knowing my designs have been chosen by and for somebody for Christmas is a really nice feeling. We all love the diamante it really is very sparkly, and looks great on the tops and the bags.
