Help Im Looking For This Or something Like This

Good Afternoon All

Hope your all well,Gosh the weather here today is horrible

again....Gale Force Winds & Loads Of Rain a great day for

sting indoors and crafting..but the reason why im indoors

and not in work...my little one Jake was sent home yesterday

from school with the sickness bug.....it was only a matter of time before it

was passed on...its spreading like wild fire in the school..dropping like flies.

*****************************************************

Less of that..my offer reason for posting today is..im on the look

out for one of these......

As some of you may already know..im doing my first

craft stall at the xmas fair in the school i work.And ive been making some Calendars

to see(see 2nd post below)but now im on the look out for

something to hang them on,instead of just having them spread out on the table.

There are 2 on Ebay at the moment..which hav bids on them,and

the bids are high and the postage.

So i was wondering if anyone has one for sale or in need of a free home??

cause as its my first craft stall....im not sure if i will sell anything

so i don't wont to be buying expensive things and being out of pocket..if you know

what i mean???

Or if you have any idea's of what i can use??To hang them on??

Thanks for your help hugs clare xx
