    Now mary, did you miss your apostrophe out (son's or sons') or do you really mean you are going to redo your sons;)

    I can't seem to get my cellophane to wrap around my gift basket correctly. It doesn't seem wide enough, but I can't find any wider cellophane!! Can anyone help??
    I am using the £1.99 baskets from wilko and bought cellophane 80cm wide, 10 meters.

    I fold in the small sections across the basket and tape them together. I then use the longer sections to gather at the top with a ribbon.

  • Hi All,

    Can anyone please tell me where I can get some hamper baskets from. You all seem to be getting them so cheaply. I cant find any less that £5. Thats a third of my budget for most presents. Also where can I buy cellophane from.

    I am sorry if this has been answered somewhere else on the thread, but I dont have time to do a through search as I am supposed to be working ;o)
