Hi BabyKat They're from Dunelm and as a rough guess I'd say they're about 8" x 5" and cost 79p each.

They are a great shape too, one of my faves, and because they're not too deep, they don't need much, if any, packing. Hth

Thanks for that i will have to have a look next time im in as they look like they can hold a good bit and arent deep and wont use as much cellophane when wrapping

ive been looking at buying some wicker bread baskets, the round ones as i think they would be okay for making up some baskets ...will 10" be big enough do you think?

Ellionic - when they upload you should be taken to a page which asks for a description you can leave this blank and click on save changes.
Then it will take you to a page like this


If you click on the IMG one (which is blue on above pic and says copied next to it) then it will automatically copy the link for you. Then when you come onto the post where you want to put the picture you can just paste the link by holding down the ctrl button and also v (press ctrl V)
Hope this helps you a little?

-MRS_T-

Rustyflange Mrs T I did a tutorial which Rosekitten kindly put on the first post of the *does anyone know how I can make* thread. See if that can help you? although I used flannels instead of socks?

Thanks so much I did not know there was a tutorial I think this would defo help although I have had a bit more success tonight :j

Lush1001 Mrs T- primark is good for the socks- 2 pairs for £2! and have a few colours available to, i bought loads when went in think the sales assistant thought i had gone mad for socks ha ha

Well funny you should mention that, these are exactly what I bought today and guess what success :j They look much better and I am pleased with them now and can defo put in hampers now I just done one quickly while sitting here so only had a lolly pop to hand but will be changing this for a lip gloss. What do you think guys
