Pots of gold help!

Claire_Bear

Just bought my pots, a pack of 4 glass tumblers for 99p. They're quite small and ribbed and look more litle candle holders than glasses to me. Can't wait to fill them

For those doing pots of gold and want a clear container I picked up 2 glasses (small tumblers) in sainsburys for 49p today, they will be perfect! I am going to have a trial run this afternoon then if they look rubbish I can go to ikea instead!

They would also be good for those doing multicoloured pots!

Can you please tell me where abouts in Sainsburys as went yesterday as your post said but could not find them, took that option rather than IKEA as nowhere near one and also where do I get the shredded gold paper from ebay have them but loads of sheets and did not want to pay for the postage;)

Well I've bitten the bullet and DD and myself are going to make some for her teachers/rainbow leaders etc.

I've found 6 x small dessert bowls in poundstretcher for £1.99 and have bought werthers and gold coins so far.

I've also bought cello from ebay. :rolleyes:

Hopefully they'll turn out ok

They are beautiful Victory - shame you have to take them apart but at least you have the fun of fastening them all back up again

I managed to get a box of the half price Ferreros in Tesco today so im almost ready to make mine up too - just need the Werthers and the scratchcards
