hi katie
I just bought the cup cake cases from this seller. I can highly recommend them and they come very quickly as well even though they are overseas.
I have got some fake bake lip gloss spare which I am going to use but I would just buy any normal cheap ones would do the trick0 -
Just remembered I'd forgotten the pics of the £1.99 sewing kit boxes (Home Bargains), and 6p sponge lol (Superdrug). You might have to zoom in on the first picture to get a better view of the sponge I mentioned, but I think some people will easily be able to replicate them
Please click for bigger view.

Thanks for that i will have to have a look next time im in as they look like they can hold a good bit and arent deep and wont use as much cellophane when wrapping
ive been looking at buying some wicker bread baskets, the round ones as i think they would be okay for making up some baskets ...will 10" be big enough do you think?
Hi againI'm not sure what it is about round baskets, but I seem to have the biggest problems with those lately
Not sure why but had a few wrapping problems in general
The oval are better imo, but a 10" basket whatever shape should be fine too
Dunelm had round baskets for 79p too, but they were a bit 'fussy' iyswim? Hth and good luck

OH bought some silver earrings for his SIL in the summer and she has just given them back unworn as she cant wear silver so thought I could do her a hamper around these. I won an auction on ebay at the beginning of the week for some silver jewelry findings and chains etc so will be trying to make some bracelets etc to go with the earrings. Posty has just been, thought it was the stuff from ebay but its a free bottle of calvin kleins Secret Obsession (which I cant for the life of me remember sending off for and if i did thought it would just be a smelly card) so can put this in with the bits. Just need to find a small basket or something pretty to put it in as all my ones are too big.
BY the way does anyone know any stores which let you have shoeboxes if you ask for them? I need 4 for christmas eve boxes but the shops in my High St wont give out the boxes for some reason. Just said sorry we dont have any.
How about asking on freecycle for some shoeboxes? Or just asking people you know or neighbours, this is what I've done in the past for Operation Christmas child boxes.
Also you might have heard of this but maybe take a look

All you pay is postage. I haven't used it yet, but may do for christmas. I would love to hear from someone who has used it before?0 -

I think most people buy them from Baking Frenzy here:

Edited to add: Lizbeth - I bought the 5cm x 5cm if that helps?
Edited to also add: katie2407 - Boots are doing 10 mini lip gloss in a little gift bag in the 17 range for £6, but they're on 342 at the moment so for £12 you can get 30 and 3 seperate 100 points vouchers to use next year. hthOh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive. ~ Sir Walter Scott0
