Finished Baskets - Part 2

bluestarrz

Here are some baskets I have just finished:

One for my sister (birthday and Christmas) with:


slippers
strictly workout dvd
flannel reindeer
retro sweet jar
Gwen stefani perfume
iron 'sister' ornament
ann summers pyjamas
Little piglet book
Yankee candles
photo album
mug and crocheted mug cosy




These are two 'Yankee candle baskets' I made for my sister and one for my mum

Each includes a Christmas scented jar, tart burner and tarts (I got them both other yankee candles but added them to their other presents -purple for sister and orange for mum) and kept these baskets Chrismassy colours!




Getting wrapping paper later to start my Ex MIL and FIL's basket will post when I'm done!

Popkins - not sure if this will help but on the freebie board they were giving away honey recipe books
http://www.rowsehoney.co.uk/articles.../free-booklets

I had one and it wasnt bad for a freebie. Might be something else on that site that will give you an idea or two. hth

Popkins

Hi, I've bought some honey from the honey farm shop when I went to newquay on hols in which ellemm mentioned and it was nice but if you're ordering online then postage fees are quite steep.

Here is a few ideas/example that you may be interested in:
