Finished Baskets - Part 2

Kandipandi

I would say have a look at the pictures thread and see what you prefer.
I bought plain for the pots of gold, and other little bits, and dotty for others, cause it looks like snow falling (well it does to me ). I really love the gold cello it looks really classy and expensive, but it comes down to personal choice I guess.

Hi threelittlepigs, the pots were from ikea and were 79p each which I didn't think was bad, Kandipandi has used the cups from the same range and I think she said they were 59p each?

If they win on the scratch cards then they will post them back to claim it and I will pay it into their account ...

When I decided I was doing them I had planned on sticking in a £10 note ... til OH mentioned it would be a pointless pressie for them as they can't use it over there :rotfl:

Zoe the prices on there are scary lol

Thank you
think i might get some of those
I think i was just having a blonde moment with the scratch cards:rotfl:
and think i would of just put a normal £10 in too:rotfl:

Wow! You have been busy! They all look brilliant :T
I especially love the little reindeer heads on your reindeer food label - cute as can be.

Hello again

Those pots of gold look fab, mine just require a few more coins for the top and the scratch cards, might also get lottery tickets but I haven't seen an xmas eve draw and I'll want them wrapped before asap!!

Sorry i posted last night looking for advice on my hampers, just wondered what u guys thought? There on page 27 (thought I shouldn't repost the pics as there quite big still so u can see them properly

Busy isn't the word ... tonight I have made up 2 x pots of gold, 1 x marmite hamper, started 1 x door hanger, made up 1 x boys 3 tier nappy cake and made up 15 snowman soups ... I am now in the process of running a nice hot bath where I plan to take up my new snazzy christmas door hanger and use a nice christmas bath bomb from Lush

I have (almost!) done my hampers for MIL and SIL, I've been very moneysaving I think here they are 'naked' (ie with no tissue paper, cello or ribbons) and the all important prices..(my cello and tissue is left overs so it's not in the costings).
