    Thanks Rusty...........I'm doing my best despite OH telling me to do 'nothing' !! I want to feel I'm in control and on top of things. Just goes to show that a couple of weeks (felt like longer) being hospitalised, plus recovery at home can really put things back.

    I'm creative -you can't expect me to be neat too !

    You may well want to feel in control but you need to rest and build your strength back up, otherwise you could end up bad for longer. We need you here with your wacky suggestions and fantastic ideas! Just take it easy :) xx

    Mary - wishing you well hun!! Take it easy though don't want you having a setback!! those hampers sound fab!!

    Rusty - thanks for the Wilkos tip! (OT - thanks also for the tutorial you sent me its great!!) will have to try and pop there - maybe tomorrow not got time today!

    Well I'm trying to plan a hamper for my stepbrother who finally exchanged/completed on his flat last week (after about 5-6 months of hassle) only thing is he moved in immediately! & I was planning on giving him a moving in hamper to include things like teabags etc!! Someone a little while back did one on here & I thought it was a great idea - must look back & find the post!

    Only thing is I was after some other ideas for things to put in it - thing is my stepbro is very 'designer' led iykwim and he's just bought a very trendy penthouse apartment so want to kind of do a hamper that reflects that but doesn't cost me a fortune - anyone got any ideas?!!! pleease?

    TIA

    One of the girls originally did them on the flannel thread I believe, then Julie H, and then Bella.
