savingholmes your presents are lovely, the cooking baskets are such a great idea for the young ones, they'll get lots of pleasure from making things. Brilliant.

Rusty - your children are just so gorgeous, they have such lovely eyes. Your "little gappy" looks so cheeky LOL

Thanks Savingholmes ... I have just one major problem ... I was woken up this morning to a gappy little boy excited because the tooth fairy had been ... then he mentioned that he now has another wobbly tooth! and sure enough over night the one next to it is wobbling!

Think I should have listened to you about that one this is going to be expensive in a very short time!!!

You should have paid more attention to Charlie and Lola - her and Lotta were building a farm with their tooth fairy money - they had quite a few animals quickly lol!

Lovely hamper galaxy

Mary - the antlers were shiny pipecleaner (Rymans £1.99) - folded in half poked through elaccy band and bent into shape - then second pipecleaner cut in half and wrapped around first pipecleaner part way down to form prongs... Hope that helps. I used the instructions I re-posted a page or so back - i think they were Rustyflange or Rainmacs - sorry girls always mix you up...:o

Hi all,

Dont know if anyone else has posted this but thought id say that Boots are making Flannel Cakes as part of their 3 for 2. Their also wrapping a lipgloss in the middle and using the rounded edge as a cherry! I think they were £3.50

savingholmes - thanks for that. We don't have a Rymans here -not sure if there's one in Lincoln but I think I've got (somewhere) some sort of tinsel type string that I could twine round some white pipe cleaners -might do the job.

kle87 - didn't know that about Boots...........like the idea of lip gloss for a cherry.

Bought some baskets yesterday so now all I have to do is wrap them all up ( Was hoping to get that done today but can't find the scissors anywhere!! )

So here's whats going in them and how im thinking of laying it out ( Not sure how to post images straight into the thread so links will have to do )

Wow, wow, wow, I'd love to receive this as a pressie!!! Well done!

Rosekitten posted how to post pics instructions on page 33 of the 'does anyone know how to make this' thread.

Galaxy - lovely hamper..............made me feel like reaching for my kit-kat drawer.................lol

You have a kit-kat drawer? I want to get an invite to your house!!! I've got a fudge bar in my bag for the kiddies to share after school tomorrow, might have to go and secretly scoff it after seeing Galaxy's lovely basket of goodies

We have a salad drawer full of chockys in our fridge (well my old one which we still use in the garage lol) The proper fridge in the house is full of healthy stuff though
