Hi guys, here are my hampers from last year. I thought I'd post pics as the recipients (my parents) loved them & it might give some inspiration to people this year. My hubby loved them so much he's making them for his parents this year 
Mum's Hamper
Lidded wicker hamper - £3.99 Alders, Leeds city centre
Tissue paper - 49p for 1 packet of 3 sheets, Wilkos
Bar of Green & Blacks chocolate - free (from the freebies board - OH ate the other one!)
Pretty mug - £1 from the poundshop (filled with tissue for transportation)Harvey Nichols teabags £2.99
Sanctuary miniatures & pouffe - free, with Pigsback Boots vouchers, but should have been £3.99.
Total cost: £8.47!
Dad's Hamper
Lidded wicker hamper, as before - £3.99
Tssue paper, as before, 49p
4 miniature whiskies, free with Boots vouchers, should have been £5

Hi - They look lovely. Don't know if you are aware of the thread for finished baskets (photos only) on this board, you might want to get your post moved there as everyone on the thread loves to see other finished baskets.
It is here http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1175727&page=50 -
