Sarahdol75 - re your baskets, what about using the Christmas cake tons which are cheapish in Home Bargains etc. Doesn't have to be a Christmas theme.

You could line it with tinsel or a face cloth / hand towel then either put the lid on or tip the lid up and sit the the base inside (blue tac will hold it in place), then wrap with cellophane and decorate with curling ribbon & tag.

Hopefully you know what I mean.

I think you should go to Vanilla Twist and get her to help you, have you seen her lovely wrapping and ribbons very professional x

Oh is that the lovely silver parcels with the beautiful bows?

I'd just leave them under my tree and admire, bring them out every year. I loved them, lucky recipients.

I have decided to make a few hampers this year too. I have the basket things kept from foodie gifts sets I bought RTC after xmas last year.

I know it has probably already been said but please where is the best place to get the cellophane from?
