PinkButterfly, there are some great ones on there, quite a good idea for a business really, I would have thought they would go down well at Christmas fairs...

After recent inspiration from here we are doing mini hampers of all different sorts for our christmas fayre in November.I asked a local charity shop to save us any baskets that came in and we picked up 27 assorted sized baskets for 10p each ...bargain!!! Apparently they usually throw them out as no one wants them. Just gave them a hose down with the shower head and they are now drying off on newspaper. Already have lots of donated goodies so won't have to buy much to finish them, and they should make a few quid:j

great idea to ask the charity to shop to actually keep them - id spend ages looking round loads to find them knowing me!!
