Christmas eve hamper

mary43

xkymx - feel free.

Now I'll need to buy a decoration.....................OH said to make one out of tin foil but I see the pickle I'd get in with that !

I've written him a story about a Christmas star and done a 'name a star' certificate for him................now OH is reckoning I should give him that on Christmas Eve as the story revolves around then.......not sure myself.

I've done a Santa Letter for him but I think last year I gave it to his Mum and Dad when we took the pressies down ...............can't really put it in his Christmas Eve Box as in the letter Santa is asking baby grandson to put out something for the reindeer as he's asked his Nanny but she might forget..............lol

Oooh oooh ooooh i loooove this thread! I'm sitting here with my pad and pen, writing things down. I'm so excited!

My mum and dad live next door, and my nan and uncle will be coming to stay with them/us for xmas and new year. So i thought it would be nice to do them a xmas eve hamper aswell as the kids. I thought maybe for the adults -

* name a star certificate
* pair of cheap fluffy slippers
* cheap xmassy mug
* sachet hot chocolate
* terry's choco orange
* reindeer food which is compulsary to scatter outside
* and maybe 'santa claus the movie' original, on dvd between them all, so they can watch it on xmas eve?

What do you think? Would you be pleased to receive something like that on xmas eve?

Not half ! Must admit I'm enjoying doing all these little bits for baby grandson probably more so as I shan't be there to see him at Christmas - but I'm loving it so much, takes me back to my childhood and my kids, though all these things weren't thought of or done then - christmas eve hamper would be super.........go for it . ......I'm sure they'll love it. :j

Thank you For the red one, the paper was some stuff I bought a few years ago from QVC. All I know is it was made by Creative Imaginations. Just had a look on their website and can't find the design, sorry! I made another one with green and beige paper and that was done with Papermania 12x2" paper strips. These papers but in different size... http://www.docrafts.co.uk/asp/products/product.asp?id=71594
