When i was living in the U.S.A, I went to lots of parties where there were pinatas. We actually went to some that had pinatas for adults that were filled with treats like liquer filled choccies, mini bottles of Baileys Irish cream and all sorts of treats. So I guess there are lots of things you could fill them with. It would be really fun to fill them with xmas stocking stuffers etc. The sky is the limit, but these ones look too good to break.

These are really great - Geoff has a really great talent there!  My children would love a pinata but have only really seen them on the television ...

Judy they are really wonderful. You are so clever. The only arty/crafty thing I can do is embroidery which I love, and knit. I even got evicted from art in first year high school I was so hopeless.

I got thrown out of sewing class whilst at school but now (in my 40's) I love it.  Sewing something is often my way of relaxing and I can't wait to have my own sewing room so I can leave it all out and not have to pack it all away all the time.  I keep trying to get into quilting but have so many garments I want to make myself and the children that I never get beyond the fabric buying phase ....

This is what my dining room table looks like Cookie and that is after he has finished 3 of them so you can imagine how cluttered it was to begin with. I don't know too many women who could stand it for as long as I do so there is no way I would want it to be prolonged by him taking orders.  He would stress out too much anyway and just does what he wants if he feels up to it.  He is always glad when the last one is finished too.  Out of sight is a huge box of bits and pieces and he has even got stuff on the little table at the end of the kitchen (adjoining the dining room) where we have breakfast so he has cut my work area in half as well.

Thanks girls.  The eldest GC is almost 16 and the youngest just over 2 years old Faffa.  I was thinking maybe the eldest is getting a bit past it but I know yours are even older than that so guess we can't leave him out just yet.
