    How do I make my pictures smaller? Do I do it on photobucket before I upload it? Thanks. I will leave other pics until I know how to do this..

    Just love all the hampers you have made, this is going to be the best Christmas ever for me, not struggling to find presents for everyone, thank you all so much. I even directed my sister in Holland to this thread as she was struggling to think of pressies...

    You can resize them on photobucket after you uploaded them under edit or resize.

    Aww thanks guys!!! Does my picture of the sweety bouquet come up as a link or a picture to you guys?

    I have sweets all the way around, so have shots of all 4 angles, I basically chucked some oasis in a large plant pot, bought BBQ skewers (had them in from summer) and sellotaped the sweets onto the skewers,as you have all asked how Ive done it, it must be ok if you cant see the skewers! I tried to hide them with other sweets and pieces of ribbon etc.

    Its massive! Cant believe how many sweets it needed, has loads of retro sweets in and 3 huge selection boxes in it. It is for my OH who is having an operation this week, instead of a bouquet of flowers, cos you cant really send men flowers can you!!! Hope he likes it!

    something seemed to go wrong with your pic links so I've sorted them out for you. EDIT....They're working fine on your post now!! LOL

    Both baskets look absolutely gorgeous and very luxurious. Well done. I'd love to receive them.
    :T*Thanks to all who posts comps * :j
  • i have just trailed all 40 pages of this thread and must say how surprised i am at such lovely hampers, i have just reserved the lovely pink hat boxes from argos and will incorporate the presents i have already bought for the female members of my family into a hamper.

    Also thanks for the tips on where to buy the cellophane and bows. I shall continue to read this thread to see what other lovely hampers you nice people are making.

    Thanks alot
