Nothing like a bit of action stations when you've nothing else to do! And on a side note, I'm so jealous you still get called mummy. I've been "muuuuuuuum" for years.
It's good that this kind of last minute gifts are totally doable :) It's lovely and thank you for inspiration - I think I know now what to do with my beloved jeans dungarees that somehow must have...ekhem...shrunk.
