I bought 20 mtrs of patterned cellophane on a roll today from a local Florist Warehouse. I never knew the public could just go in there and buy until a friend told me yesterday. It was like Aladdin's Cave:D . They have whole rolls of cellophane, plain and patterned. The one I purchased was £3.85 for 20 mtrs and the 120 mtrs were £8.95 +VAT. They had everything there that a florist uses including the flowers and the cutter they use to cut cellophane for £1.40 - it's £3+ on ebay. I also bought a lovely oblong wicker basker with handles, lined in a plain material for £2. It will do just nicely as a hamper for an elderly friend who lives on her own and I have loads of room to fill it as it is quite large. Wrapped up in the lovely cellophane I bought it should look good!0
