Xmas eve hamper - better than last year

Rummer

Hello I have just made a bog of snowman kisses for my hamper using the sainsburys teeth and lips chewy sweets. The teeth I have used to make a tooth fairy gift and added a rhyme that says:

As times are tough
and I've teeth aplenty
I give you these
instead of pennies!

Play.com were doing Home Alone 1 and 2 together for £5.00 plus free delivery. I got one for my two for their christmas eve hamper, agreed its a good christmas film

I know - I got it from there as well :j:T

I got sick of losing out on ebay lol.

Thanks hun but I've had a brain wave - we're gonna make some hehe

DD has a craft set which has hole cutters in the shape of Xmassy things and she has some shiny paper so I'm going to rob these from her and make my own [well the kiddies are!!]
Thank you for the offer and if it all goes pear shaped I might get back to you

Oh oh - go buy loads and sell them on Ebay - you'll make a packet!!

Oooooohhh!! Nice!!

Well done you!

I am thinking I may have bought too much! I may ebay some after all - unless anyone else on here wants some for cost + postage??

After reading more of this thread I am now undecided as to whether or not I should make a hamper or use individual bags???? I do have a load of spare material so I could make bags, what do you all think?

Hi guys, needs a bit more help if poss..wanted to get my OH some festive pants for our hamper but he wears briefs not boxers and I can't find any, not really looking for something overly novel just something a bit festive. Anyone seen any anywhere? I had hoped to find some in Primark as I'm sure they had some last year but there was nothing

All I can seem to find is boxers or just hideous posing pouches *shudder* :rotfl:
