I was wondering if it would be possible to collate a list of things that can be altered - as a quick reference of inspiration.
I often forget the multitude of things that can be altered and I would find this useful. There is so much that can be altered half of it leaves my brain!
I am happy to collate the list from suggestions from everyone.
Would anyone else find this useful?
Sorry if this is a pants idea!

I guess most things can be 'altered' in some way! 
If you all keep adding to this thread, I'll collate it all into one list for you and re-post

Or you can do one post Claire and you can always edit your own post, and keep adding to it. I am happy to add a page to the main site as well.
Great idea, maybe a page with all the fabby links.

I didn't do anything fancy with them just wrapped in paper and nice ribbon top and bottom.

Thought I'd better show my face again, haven't posted since before Xmas!
Don't forget CD's, and CD cases (make up a compilation CD of someone's fave tunes then tart up the case, or the same with a CD of photos).
