If you have a QS shop close to you then they had nice cotton lined baskets in there yesterday all with 20% off. I go a nice deep one for £3 - 20%=£2.40.

QS also had 20% off of oven mitts, tea towels, candles and loads of other stuff.

I got my curling ribbon from here

It costs £2.80 with free postage.

LOL! They must be doing a bomb outta this thread! I love their store. I buy my pull bows from them too, as they let you mix and match your colours.

The last stuff I got was the Christmas Tree cello in red and gold - it's fantastic! Very happy with it!

You can buy some things from ebay, like cellophane, "the clear wrapping stuff" You can also buy cellophane with designs on in white, or colours
