    Help, this is my first time ever posting. I need to get a basket for a food hamper and can't find anywhere selling them now. Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask but what can I do? Does anyone have any ideas.

  • Just did 2 hot choccie mugs as nice pressies for middle and eldest boys.
    Mugs - £1 each (£2)
    Hot choc sachets x 10 - 5 for £1 (£2)
    Bag mini marshmallows decanted into 2 handmade cellophane cones 79p (79p)
    3 Twirl choccy bars in each from Twirl multibag - still half of them left(£1.98)

    Have wrapped them in xmas paper and cellophane and they look gorgeous, and much better than some of the ready made sets I've seen for £5 upwards for a mug, a dozen mini marshmallows and a couple of sachets, I have picked out both their favourites, they will be so chuffed!

    kr15snw - Your boxes look really good. Can I ask where you got them? I was planning on using baskets but not being organised I can't find any now.

  • Wow, all these hampers are so good! I've been really inspired to make one for my Aunt and Uncle, and I think I want to do 'A Night In' hamper and I wondered what I should put in it. I was thinking a film (or a voucher to buy a film as I'm not sure what they'd want) some wine, popcorn, and some chocolates or sweets. Is there anything else I could add? Any help would be greatly appreciated! :D
    Thanks to all those who post competitions! :T
