Helen where are the pcitures please?

Dorato

Just a quick question - where can I get some boxes to put the hampers in? Just plain boxes is all I'm after as I'm going to decorate them myself anyway.

Hi
If you click on Special occasions & celebrations [up above] there is a thread on there with photos on, you have to go to the last few pages to see the most recent ones

I have got plastic shoe boxes from instore/poundstretcher. They are nearly clear and are a bit bigger than a shoe box but obviously plastic. They are 99p and come in a range of coloured lids. (pink, orange, blue and green!) I have 3 of them so far but need 1 more (shop only had one today!!)

Will try and take a photo for you later on.

Hello all
My roll of cellophane has now arrived so I've just got to source boxes and then I'm set to go with the kiddies ones, just need to sort out more bits for Mum, Dad and DH [going to M&S tomorrow to see what I can get!!]

As promised, pictures of the boxes. I also picked up a lovely santa plate from there (well 2) and so took a quick pic of that aswell. Sorry about the pic of them all in my wardrobe I couldn't get them out as my 2 yr old was dancing about and she is a right nosey madam!!





And the santa plate (the writing is gold but you can't see it properly cause of the flash on my camera!)
