Title: Needed urgently, 1 blank ear tag
Post by: colliewoman on March 21, 2013, 05:58:25 pm
Yes I know it's a random one and no one uses them any more but would anyone have a blank eartag I could buy and pay  to post it to me ASAP.
I have a friend who is sheep mad, and for her birthday I have made a 'Baaahbor' hand bag. Made out of waxed cotton and lined with a fabric printed edge to edge with sheep.
What else could I choose for a zip pull but an ear tag ;D
I cannot for love nor money find my old blank ones, and I can't buy a single one and get it here for Saturday :-[
CAn anyone please save the day for me?


I thought I would post this here rather than crafts as more people with sheep tags read this bit :thumbsup:


Please PM if you c n help, Thank you :eyelashes: :eyelashes: :eyelashes:

Aw thanks so much but I have thousands of those. If all else fails perhaps I can fashion a daisy out of them and fix that on the zip :thinking: :thinking: :thinking:

I haven't got it yet but panic not, we have wandering post here ;D
I have a few more days till I see my friend anyway.
I got a little red card in the post box so I am assuming someone on the field is safeguarding a packet for me :thumbsup:

Thank you so much once again :-* :-*
