    This is my mum's Shopaholic hamper!
    *Magnetic shopping list-35p Home Bargains

  • Just put together my nieces sleepover hampers, they are aged 10 and 12 years and very girly girly:D


    I have only posted one lot of pics but have two of everything and have made two hampers. The baskets are basic laundry baskets from asda £2.97 each but plenty big enough. Doesn't look very big in the picture but is about 2ft wide and about 12" deep:D .


    Have bought all the bits for both hampers through year in sales, bogofs etc except for the two fleees which I got from asda the other night 2 for £10.

  • Me again, DD (aged 5) and I have just spent an hour or so putting our first ever flannel muffins together and I think I am hooked. Only took a picture of them wrapped but they have pink and white flannels with a heart shaped pink bath bomb on top and the bomb has a little red glitter.
