Apologies if this has been resolved and if it's on the wrong thread but was someone looking for 'lager top' sweets? Just found a site that seems fairly reasonable; http://www.aquarterof.co.uk/lager-tops-p-1087.html

HTH and sorry if this has been sorted!

Thanks for the reminder, just posted my pics over there, i love that thread asit gives me so many ideas.

Also does anyone know where i can get some big cheap bows, the pull type, or how to make your own?

think a lot of people get the bows from florists or ebay (possibly the flower hour seller- i haven't got any yet so not sure)

Sophiesmum, those sleepover hampers (am sure it was you that did them) are sooo awesome, looks like it will take them ages just to look through it all and looks really really expensive.
I hope mine turnout anywhere as nice hehe

Going to make an indian food hamper based around this book:



Sorry for the bad quality - it's the Madhur Jaffrey ultimate curry bible. It's £10 in WHSmith instore so going to use the £5 off voucher that popped up on here a few days ago.

Some good hamper ideas here (but HOW expensive?!)

No, hers is far better! Just got some good bargains in the PAFC sale and ran with a theme. The Newcastle United one is fab! Very striking with the all black and white too.

Don't be so daft!!!! Yours is fantastic and so nice to see girly things in there aswell even with it being a football theme. It looks fantastic well done you!!!

Fantastic hampers everyone ... sorry there have been far too many to list individually but they all look great!! I am once again getting withdrawal symptons from hampers lol have none to make this week as I have 1 full scrapbook (mini size) and a few 12x12 pages to get done whilst OH is away and the kiddies are off school!!!
