    Great hamper lickul miss, it looks so great all wrapped up!

    Shelley, how thoughtful of you to go out and get your grandad a pressie as well as giving him money. It looks fab!
    Thank you Rainmac - my Bampy is my two eyes and I just don't feel right just giving him money. My Nan and Bamps spoil us rotten so i wanted to do something thoughtful for him. Thank God for this thread :T

    Lickul miss - that hamper is gorgeous dying to know whats inside :D:D I've got the same mug from Home Bargains to put in a hamper for my SIL it was only 79p - I was so chuffed x

    Thats lovely Rainmac, thankyou if you don't mind I will steal that.

    Anyone know where I can get a bit of sack type material? is it called hessian or something? so I can make a small sack to put it in?

    rainmac - lovely little rhyme that one.........

    rusty - you could try local garden centre or upholsterer for hessian. Upholsters use it for the underneath part of old sofas if they're restoring or recovering them and often garden centres sell it for lining hanging baskets.
    Failing that, often a farm good supply shop might have some -need washing first to get the smell of the seed out, or builders...be a bit coarser though.
    I lined my hanging baskets with it this year and the local builder gave me some. If I'd got any spare I'd send it to you but I haven't and really you're better off with the finer stuff.

    I just hope I have given myself enough time to do this, yeah, bath bombs sound good, I dont have a dishwasher so dont know if I can still make the flavoured vodka,

    I think a little book of drinking games sounds ideal, I am just going to nip along to a few local shops and see what they have, if they have little I will head into Glasgow and see what I can get

    I will keep you updated on this little project,

    Thank you

    Was just about to tell you about a beer cooler tin thing and then someone has posted a hamper using one! It is post 4105 and looks super. They are £2.99 from Quality Save/Home Bargains and would be great for your sisters drink hamper.
