Can I ask one question - where do you get you baskets from? I live in a village and have to 'travel' to highstreets for shops like wilkos and poundland etc If I can find out where you get your baskets from or if anyone has seen any good price baskets can you let me know. thankyou :-)Proud mummy to an amazing 8 year old!0 -

I've finally found this thread - i knew there would be one. Great ideas so i thought i'd repost my photograph of the contents of a new home basket i've put together. I have since added a pack of post-it notes that i found in the cupboard as i read on the new home hamper that they would be useful.

Contents - Poundstretcher
Furniture polish 99p
Dusters 99p ?
Kitchen Scissors 99p

Sorry, can't remember exact prices of everything but they were all under a £1 and the total was less than £9 - the receipt doesn't show up as well as i'd hoped.
I'm having problems with the picture of the contents of a gift bag i recently received from a friend for a new baby. I don't know the cost of the items but the contents are
bear comforter (square cloth with bear attached to it)
rattle
3x george muslin squares
tommee tippee food container
hand mittens
sock ons
paw print bib
tommee tipped baby cutlery
bright starts starry teether
3x mini baby books0 -
