    Coffee hamper:

    Coffee (obviously!)
    The Boots cappucino set, taken apart (can't put picture as Boots.com is down), it has two big cups, an electric milk frother, stencil for chocolate and chocolate shaker
    Baileys - either the £5 Asda one or a minature
    If it's a Baileys minature, then also a Cointreau and a Whiskey minature
    Dark chocolate Lindt sweets scattered in the hamper
    Cream and coffee coloured sock cupcake

    Any other ideas to add? I thought a cheap cafetiere? Any ideas what else I could use instead of a hamper (gave the same person a cheer up hamper a few weeks ago y'see)

    If you do want miniatures, Tesco are selling a Baileys mini set with 2 mini bottles and 3 truffles half price for £3. I know cos I bought it for me at the weekend. Very nice too is was :D

    Could you use a tray instead of a basket? - sorry Rusty already mentioned and provided fab piccie!

    Your wrapped box looks fab! I think I might go for brown paper and ribbon this year for some of my gifts it looks really special. x

    No problem, if you ever get stuck just stick them in an email and I will put them up for you :)

    Thanks for the kind comment on my box :) I am quite happy with it and its another one to tick off the list now!

    OH's pressie arrived this morning the sphering for one which I got from buyagift, it comes with money off coupons for use on their website and also a voucher for £5 for me to give to someone to drop a subtle hint ... no really thats what it says on the voucher! For the £28 I paid I am really happy with it and it gives me a bit more to put in his hamper :) I plan to wrap each item individually though and then cellophane it up which I know isn't a proper hamper but I want the something to open if you know what I mean.

    So sorry kandipandi, forgot to say how lovely your pet hamper is - it looks fab :T

    Rusty, also love your box if goodies, the recipient has the pleasure of ripping off all the paper to find out what's inside! The ribbon looks fab against the brown paper - clever you :T

    This thread is getting difficult to keep up with, so many pages!

    I got my cello from Flowerhour, its fab, and my cupcake cases were from baking Frenzy (Ebay) like these ones:
