Finished baskets!!

Fabulous baskets.....I had all good intentions of doing this stuff too, but due to a very unsettled baby until just recently, I haven't got far. Also ran out of money now, so am stuck. I tried to start early to avoid rushing nearer Christmas and so I could get the items I wanted before selling out, but it hasn't totally happened like that.. but that's another thread. I have picked up some ideas from these, so may still be able to get a few done.

WOW - They look LOVELY - I WISH i was part of your family i would love any one of these.

It is excellent seeing what they actually look like - if they were on sale in a shop i would definitely buy them! plus they are so thoughtful. I bet they will love them.

I agree, can you imagine what they would cost in the shops though.

I think all the baskets are fabulous. You are to be congratulated on all the hard work, care and thoughtfulness you have put into these gifts. Anyone would be delighted to receive such beautiful presents.

The baskets are GREAT. Quite luxurious looking too.

I am going to try do one for MIL..need to look for baskets today. Not many places to try. Goin see in Au Naturale if they have any reasonable ones + maybe do one for my Secret Santa in work.

I do think they will be appreciated.....cos I would def love one.

Where do you get the cellophane from?

I remember reading this somewhere but can't remember the thread.

Here's one of my 'retro sweets' baskets that's almost complete. I say almost complete because there are still a few other sweets I have yet to get, but you get the idea.

It's filled with all different sweets that we had when we were kids growing up in the 80's. I'm sure my brother's are going to love them and they'll bring back some fond memories!
