a stylish wastepaper bin? - my son has a metal basket type from W H Smith which he thinks is 'dead cool'. I know one of his friends has an inflatible one.
What age group are you accomodating?

Hi all, for anyone making kids baking hampers just noticed this on the grabbit board, is their deal of the day though so imagine it will go back up tommorrow(sp).http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B...rd_i=350613011.

Was just coming to post this myself. It's a great kit on it's own, and you could bulk it out into a proper hamper by using a small baking sheet/swiss roll tray, sitting this in the middle, and surrounding it with cookie cutters, coloured cake cases, and loads of the Supercook decorations that are so cheap in Tesco etc right now (just delved through my cupboard stock, and they all have at least April 09 dates, so would be fine for christmas). I won't add the bottles of food colourings as my recipients are all younger, but if it's heading for a trustworthy/older child, then they'd look great all lined up on the tray.

o0o its not 5 days, 5 weeks. Sorry to hear about your loss I lost one in october also.

Just sold another hamper well I seem to be making to order rather than making up and selling, only to friends though.
