I have managed to finish my mums hamper I will take a pic as soon as I find the camera lol.
Just got one to do for the school teachers for christmas now and I have finished. All I am doing for them is getting some chocks and making a school sock monkey so quite easy.:wave: Wins in 09 = A vodka cocktail kit thing lol, £150 Amazon voucher.0 -
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!0

Dont forget and put the pictures on the pictures only thread!
