Just an update on this thread to say I've added a photo instruction of where to cut the milk carton to get your Elmer 'model' !

I think Sadie may of used the larger carton .. but the cut line should be about the same ... a small tip for avoiding a large PONG though .. wash them out well if you have to store them until you have enough :crazy: :vomit: !!!

Well, Raymond and I made our Elmer a couple of days ago, and he looks fab! He now has pride of place on Raymond's windowsill and I can quite honestly see us making many more!
