    Thanks for that rainmac, I've often wondered how to make smaller pics and rosekitten has been duly thanked - bless her :)

    The link to the page (if anyone gets as lost as myself lol, is here:

    Juliepink, that's a really pretty hamper :)

    lush1001, hi :) Loved your enthusiasm over hamper making, but if you get stuck with the cellophaning, (as I did on my 1st, 2nd, and maybe 3rd attempt ;)), just ask the peeps on here as they always help - thankfully :D I was like a nutcase wrapping and even double-wrapping in some cases lol.

    soblivion :) Great post about the hampers and who appreciates them and who doesn't. Wise words indeed :D

  • Hi - does anyone have a template for a DVD sleeve? I know a lot of people do movie hampers so I'm hoping someone knows the right size :)

  • This thread is wonderful and has inspired me greatly so thank you!

    One thing that I did (albeit for my dd 16th birthday) was I put a series of photos onto a CD from birth to present day and I added some music and a little "title" prior to each one.

    She absolutely loved it and cried watching it! (so did I!!!)

    I think I used Windows Movie Maker but there must be other software you could use or alternatively you could probably do it on Powerpoint but without the music.

    Obviously you will also need a DVD burner and software too, I use Nero but again, there are others available.

    Hope that helps.
