    Thanks to Passion8 for giving me this idea, have expanded on your suggestion Hun. Sorry not a great pic but you get the general idea. My family will really think I have lost the plot now-cutting out paper and colouring it in lol

    This is for my Nephew who is 13 next week here is pic unwrapped

    That's half of the fun :D It looks really good - especially with the bib ;)

    If anyone follows the link (if it appears on the last pic, they'll see versions of the popcorn boxes I mentioned, and a couple of other pictures.)

    If not, and anyone's interested, I'll post them up seperately :)


    I couldn't find a link so would you post again, ta Hun

    The other one was for dd's birthday, and not sure what to use this for yet. I used it in the other picture, to hold some UR shampoo and conditioner.

    I hope she's not looking :eek: lol

    Thanks for the help D-D :)

    Edit: You didn't mean the Easter bonnet box did you? lol
