Finished Baskets - Part 2
Comments

I was wondering if anyone can help, I want to make a celebration hamper for a friend of mine, well the whole family! They have just about finished the adoption process, and i wanted to make up a hamper to celebrate this happy occasion, they alread have 2 kids, so any ideas would be great. So far I thought about:
Family organiser calender -she nearly bought one last week, but i have one left over from christmas.
A bottle of bubbly
I was thinking about making some cakes or biscuits
A yankee candle0 -
what about a photograph album, so they can start a new one with the new member of their family?0
-
or, what about one of those photocubes?
they have them now that they rotate 360 degrees, quite funky
so it would have space for 6 photos, 1 of each of the family
and one of all of them together
unsure if i am allowed post a link, noobie here!
but ebay item #330394795554 is one of them to let you see0 -
If anyone is thinking of doing any winter warmer hampers for next year, Primark have fab hotwater bottles reduced from £4 to £1 - a pink fleece material, or furrry in a cow or leopard print0

Its my friends 14th birthday soon, and I want to do her a '14 things for your 14th birthday' hamper, but I've never made hampers before, so need a bit of help.
I think I'm going to get the 101 running songs CD because she likes to go jogging.
She's very healthy so I don't want to give her to many sweetie-type things although I think a choc bar will be one of them...
Just need some suggestions really?
Thanks

not sure what they are called but i saw them on GMTV its a little pouch that goes on your trainers for your keys when running. how about a sports drink? or drink bottle?
