    Sorry to but in but when I was in our local woolies which is about as big as a match box they had some teapots for one in a little box for £6 they were lovely looking and had 2 different designs, I know someone mentioned them yesterday after Kizzy's beautiful hamper :)

  • I am getting so frustrated.

    I have a pile of baskets sat in one corner of my bedroom, I have cellophane and ribbons stashed under the bed, I have a HUGE mound (covered by a blanket) at the end of the bed, and I am totally DESPERATE to start constructing my hampers, but have nowhere to store them once they are made:mad:

    I thought about the attic, but we sometimes get little four legged scampering friends up there!:eek: I thought about the garage, but didn't think the changes in temperature would do edibles any good out there!

    Am I the only person here without a spare room to hide these beautiful hampers?:rolleyes:

    Memememe - I have everything shoved into the corner of the living room/kitchen (only have this and a bedroom, and a very small bathroom!). BF is getting a little annoyed as am I!

    No! I can't move in my bedroom. there are things under the bed, in the wardrobes and around the room. I said to OH the other day not long till everything has gone once the hampers are made up. He said you will just start buying for next year:rotfl:

    Not with two children and two loopy cats you can't!!!!:rotfl:Though I suppose once the cats have climbed the tree and knocked it over a few times, the hampers would be well hidden:eek:

    Just need some ideas lady!

    I have decided too do a hamper for the people who work in the charity shop , and also a hamper for the old peoples hom down the road?

    What could i give?

    I was thinking for the old people , some nice tea/coffee and short bread? not sure what else.

    The charity shop people probably the same

    If i really can not afford it i wont do them but i wish i could do hampers for them :)
