    Hiya x

    Love the pink theme hamper stuff - Yep I would try Primark. Sainsbury's had some in the sale the other day - I think they were pink heart design fleece style blankets and then you could also try Tesco. I got some nice plain pink ones from there too.

    I would love to get this hamper and I am 28.. ha ha

    Love Alison x

    Loving that pink hamper sophiesmum, such a fab pressie for girlie girls and big girls like me, hint hint ;) Sorry can't help with the pink fleece. Ikea sell fleece throws but I'm not sure I've ever seen pink ones. I know they do white. Around £2.50 and they are huge! Can't wait to see a pic of the finished hamper :D

  • Would definitely try Primark for throws. They have some lovely ones. Also Ikea do little ones if you have one near.

    Can't see if you already have them but Primark also have some lovely fluffy pink socks at the moment for about £1 a pair.

    For anyone who liked the pink bag in my pics, I got it from here. Good price for the quality and size and really good service. Also nice long straps which I like. I've bought a few for presents http://www.thegoodbagco.com/shop/

    I made almond biscotti for presents and gave them in kilner jars, with pretty tags. They were well received and are good because they are harder, they last longer than most biscuits would. Would be a lovely gift cellophane wrapped with a bag of coffee. In fact, that's just given me an idea for my Dad.........
