Well I don't have a beach. I have access to one and dd insists on bringing half of it home with her after each visit.
Okay, grandparents love homemade presents from grandchildren, right?
Funds are seriously lacking this year and I genuinely can't stretch far enough to buy for everybody. DD is lucky enough to have 11 grandparents and great grandparents (and a great great grandma).
I seem to remember sticking shells to jam jars as a child to make crap vases for relations. How did we manage it? Was it plaster of paris? I remember some kind of pinky gunk.
I was thinking I could bake. I make nice toffee or fudge. Peppermint creams I can do too.
Is a jamjar decorated by a 3yr old full of homemade sweets a really rubbish idea?
Anything else I can fashion at home that won't have me struck from the family's christmas card lists?

I have approximately 6 billion empty jam jars and a beach full of shells. I just need some ideas.
