    Ladies I could do with some inspiration too! I have a wicker teacup and saucer large (from candi gifts) and I have bought som nice teabags to go in side with some toffees I'm not sure what else to put in though! Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Carly

    A tea diffuser, a tea towel, some shortbread biscuits (or other posh looking biscuits) some mini jams, a small box of posh looking choccys.

    you could then add some nice looking smellies but try to keep them away from the biscuits and choccy!

    Can I ask where you got the man u tooth brush please? my boys would love them :D
  • well my oh and 2 of the boys support liverpool and the other 2 boys are man utd supporters

    How about adding some home made cookies or home made looking lol to your cup and saucer . My daughter bought one of those tea for one things for her grandma and added a t towel , suger lumps , some fruit tea sachets and some mini jams , some ferrero rocher chocs and some biccies.

    Oooh ignore my last post, it was you Craftgranny! lol

    Did you decide what to do?

    I was thinking today about it and remembered I'd done one previously with a lovely chenille throw, as opposed to towels?

    Thought this would be nice for her to go on her bed or over her chair or perhaps over her knees?

    Here's a piccy of the one I did:
