I spotted these instructions for making paper chains on Ethical Pulse by our very own Creative Charlie (see her great craft kits on Mimimyne) and thought I’d share them with you!

If you want to have a green and guilt-free Christmas this year, look no further than the Eco Design Christmas Fair 2008. This event has been run by Louise Kamara since 2004 and has become very popular as it’s a great opportunity for designer-makers and small retailers to show their wares. It’s a fantastic place to pick up Christmas presents – I bought everything from clockwork toys for children to a keyring made from a circuit board as a stocking filler last year. This year it’s moved to the East End’s fabulous Brick Lane (so handy for me, and for everyone else I hope) and Mimimyne is going to be there! I hope you can come along and see us and admire all the fantastic wares that will be on offer this year.
