I got them in chilli pepper, which is red (Christmassy!) I'm thinking of putting a bottle of wine, maybe mulled, in the middle and a couple of those puff things that you use in the shower and holly to decorate and wrap in cellophane.
Does that sound okay or do you ususally put other exciting things inside?
that sounds great actually about the the mulled wine and holly,may have to pince that idea but maybe put some smellies with it,i know avon do a winter wonderland collection at xmas that smells lush and also asda do there own aswell I.E shower gel,hand soap,bubble bath and myabe add some bath bombs and some spiced candles?? thats what i would use on mine anyway:)0 -

Thanks, some lovely ideas there I'll have a look out for some nice festive smellies.
I got my towels from choice catalogue, they are in the sale £10 a bale but BOGOF so paid £14 for 2 bales (for MIL and my mum)

Just been looking through the thread and reading everyone's comments, looking at pics etc (everyone's look brilliant by the way!) and I'm thinking about making a towel cake for each of my nana's this year for Christmas. I usually buy them handcream/shower/body bath kit things from M&S (they both like the Magnolia range) so I'm thinking I could incorporate those into towel cakes with some other bits and pieces. Does that sound good?0

Hi Giggle. I made some of the swiss rolls a while back but have't done anything with them as I cant get the packaging right. I tried cello and celllo bags but they dont look right. Would you mind telling me where did you get the boxes from that you have used on yours?0
