Great news hope theres plenty left:dance: Would love to have a card for JTF but then again maybe a good job i dont else i'd be there all the time:o

I recently obtained a JTF card on the basis that I am self-employed as a mystery shopper - just took some tax stuff as proof. Best thing I've done in ages......very easy to spend the £10 min every time you go in. Back on topic -loving these hampers, it's so exciting now that Xmas is getting closer....:rudolf:

Wow, these baskets are fantastic. Am fairly new to the site and this is one of the best ideas. They look so striking noone would guess the value. Well, the value does include the thought and effort so no wonder they look expensive.
Thanks for showing the pics, more convincing than just mailing a message.

'debjk' did u just get a pack of marshmellows then and wrap them in cellophane?? Looks so much nicer than just having the marshmallow packet chucked in there. All of your hampers look great!

I cut a rectangle piece of cellophane and taped up the two sides to make a bag then just secured with tape and curling ribbon also makes the bag go further A 70p bag of mini marshmallows was enough for 3 mini bags (got them in tescos it said discontinued on the label)

I have really enjoyed making these still a few left to make but plenty of time to finish them before Christmas
