I get small terracotta plant pots and paint them gold, fill with gold coins and add a lottery ticket - a lucky dip one to keep the peace should someone win something - and tie up with cello & gold ribbon
I don't like FR's so they never even crossed my mind - good idea though

Love how you have got the top white bit to look fluffy.

use cosmetic colour if you are
anything else risks staining, expecially on plastic baths (and skin:eek:)

Does anyone have any recommendations on where to get cosmetic colouring?
