Been looking for something myself - have just found this website http://www.partypieces.co.uk/product/cel_party+themes_hollywood+party+theme_tableware/4845.htm they might have exactly what I need!:j

Hey this one looks great. Surprised that it's plastic! Anyone got one of these? What are they like?

Hey Clare

I looked at getting one of those for my Movie Hamper but with P&P it worked out expensive and it's quite small (10inch diameter) but I wanted to use it to put all of my items in, it would be great if there was a bigger version of it somewhere.

I never thought of a little black book.
I have one lying around somewhere.:T

Durex cherry lube is cherry flavoured lubrication :rolleyes:
and a pulling shirt is well a pulling shirt - a nice smart trendy fashionable shirt, to make all the ladies fall at his feet.

I have been so busy today - got absolutely loads and loads done and all organised and hidden away.

We also found out what day i will be having our baby by c-section and we're so excited. Just means i have more planning and organising to do. She will be born on the 10th september 2009 :T:T:T

Also finished my new daddy hamper / survival kit and it looks really good - well im pleased with it anyway.

Now im off to have a well deserved sit down in front of the TV with a massive belguim bun covered in gooey icing and a big shiny cherry.

Hi everyone, I tend to lurk on here more than I post but after spending far too long reading this thread I had to post to thank you all for all the ideas you have given me! I already had bought cards, gift wrap, and socks (to make sock monkeys). I now also plan to make all my neices; nephews; my one cousin; and my own 3 boys a movie hamper with:
little pringles tub
choc bar
bag of butterkist popcorn
can of coca cola
cheap DVD (no more than £3)
£5 gift card for cinema
going to put them in a wrapped shoebox.

Am also going to make a pot of gold for eldest nephew (instead of movie hamper), and winter warmer hampers for my mum and nan.

I like to be organised and always stay under budget, but need to be even more so this year as found out today I will be having an op in november time after which I will have to rest up for 6 weeks!!!

princesswoo - thanks. Not sure what my grandson thinks is 'trendy' nowadays so might pass on that one. Maybe I'll think of something else.

Kay -you do sound organised and to keep within budget is an achievement...........I always try to keep mine as cheap as possible but seem to keep going over.....
Hope op is nothing too serious..........but good reason to get motivated now then at least you can put your feel up and relax

Welcome to the forum, we are pleased to have you here with us.

I'm loving all the movie hamper idea's -
Have you thought about putting a mini pic & mix in your movie hampers.

You could always put a gift card in instead.
