Lovely baskets everyone!!!

Rusty, I bought a blue chalkboard box from Matalan today for DS1! I'm going to make him a movie box for Xmas. I ordered 7 kiddie DVDs for £10 (Melissa posted details on a thread, sorry can't remember which one), got some popcorn boxes from ebay. Going to get popcorn and maybe some sweets and it will be done. Great pressie I think for about £17. I didn't get one for DS2 as wasn't sure what I'd put in it but I am going to gather togther a selection of playdoh bits so maybe will put those in one of the chalkboard boxes.

That's exactly what I'm doing - collecting bits and putting them into the right containers! I need to stop buying on some as they will not end up as money-saving baskets

I know the feeling, I've had to buy a bigger basket for one person :rolleyes: but I just love doing it :rotfl:

The problem is they take up so much room when they are wrapped

I still have a few birthday ones to complete before I start wrapping for Xmas, I am in the middle of wrapping my first ever Nappy Cake, been on this for weeks, not the wrapping just making it - got to finish it tonight as baby is due Friday
