I have just put in an order (Click and Collect) for The Works for the grand total of £1.50, the total order was for £3 but I had £1.50 in Together Rewards, talk about being the last of the big spenders! I ordered on-line early in the season for the things I could see potential in because the crafty stock tends to vary from shop to shop and I have found that certain things I really like have a habit of disappearing, never to appear again, like the packs of wooden dowels and wooden counters (the ones that looked like people)
I have been thinking about making some Easter brooches, so these packs of wooden eggs (30 for £1) look useful .......
....... as do these rabbits, again 30 for £1. I am not 100% about their sizes, I think they may be quite small, but I have a couple of ideas on how to use them.
I also thought these felt carrots (16 in a pack for £1.00) had potential ...... I think I might even get a couple of badges/brooches from them for Iris and Bertie, but I was really thinking I that I might get a couple of funny, carrot pun type cards out of them too.
I was so proud of myself just ordering one pack of each, before now I would have gone overboard and bought five of each, far more than I actually needed.
One thing I didn't buy, (for now), were these wooden rabbits (£1.50) which they also had last year and managed to resist, however I can see their potential. I have £2 to collect on a scratch card I got in a cracker at Christmas ........ I may cash it in and treat myself and put the leftover 50p in my piggy bank!

I'll be watching to see how you use these finds. I'm always interested in what your creative mind comes up with.
