    When I first stumbled across those kits, I drew up list of all the recurring items and worked out substitutes where appropriate - they were a great starting point and with just a little tweaking, very inspiring and fun to do :D:D

    For yet more inspiration on gift baskets, do check out all the suppliments around and have a look at the store bought baskets and contents as inspiration for what to put into your own.

    No one idea will suit everyone, obviously, but for inspiration, they're fab :D
