    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).

    Loving the Marmite hamper idea, my brother loves the stuff and always buys lots when he's at home (he lives in Moscow) - I wanted to buy lots of jars for him but they're so heavy to take back, so the crackers/crisps/cheeses are a fab idea - mind you, he'll probably just eat them all rather than take them home!
