Good work. I think the stuff in the sale was really good if you got there soon enough. I would recommend home bargains for cooking bits, they have lots of stuff pretty cheaply

Fab hampers Sian.

I need to get a move on with my nan's hamper it is on a go slow at the moment. I am just in middle of making a door hanger for the bath room door. Bit stuck as to what to get her now but I will think of something.

Hiya,

This is my first post in this thread but i have been lurking for a while. I'm not sure if you saw my post on the min board about a friends 40th birthday gift.

Thanks for your idea of a hamper Rusty,

Its going to be a "Now your getting OLD........er" / pamper hamper.

so far me & OH have come up with:

Hair dye
Dove pro-age shampoo & conditioner
Olay anti-aging cream (2 small bottle one day & one night)
Face Mask
No7 anti-aging lip & eye screen
Vitamins & Energising tablets

Then to help her relax and stop worring about getting old..
Bubble Bath
Bath Lilly
Candles
[FONT=&quot]Bottle of wine[/FONT]

we were also toying with an old pair of glasses, but they would be a bit useless
and also some sweets or something, although i'm sure you will come up with some other fab ideas, as this will be my first hamper.

Thanks

I've got so many great ideas on here that I want to try out
I'm going to make my neice and 2 nephews cooking hampers this christmas
I saw a photo someone posted on here with one of those childrens box mixes and other goodies all put in a mixing bowl and wrapped with cellophane and I know they will love that as they all enjoy cooking
keep those ideas coming you are saving me soooooooooooo much money

I had to get my OH to sort it for me, but when you have done it you can preview it and right click save as, just make sure you have everything you want on it. I struggled like mad and in the end OH took over!

Thanks! I didn't think of doing that! fingers crossed it will work for me!:beer:
