    I am sat here looking at my grans hamper and have realised that it does not have a theme and it is going off on one lol. Never mind its not her birthday till Feb 19 so will keep going and see what I come up with. My daughter has pained her an egg cup and I have wrote 70 on it, but its a very mixed hamper so far.

    This is me and my daughter on holiday July last year

    I don't think all hampers need a theme, I gave my mum and dad a basket of 'things' for Xmas. They loved it and I was so pleased as I'd made most of them :D

    Back to work hamper sounds brilliant Rusty. What a stroke of luck with the tie. How great is that.

    I'm doing a gardening hamper too! I picked up the gardening tote bag in Boots yesterday for under £7. It's a lovely bag with some hand cream, gardening tools, gloves and twine (I think that's all...). Could break it up and 'womble' (is that the term people use for recycling and reusing stuff???) the contents. Also got a garden gnome radio for 99p in Superdrug sale last weekend.

    Got a lot of bargains in Boots sale this afternoon, although wish I'd gone earlier as the shelves were almost bare :(
