Here are piccies of the gifts that I have made.
Each lantern was £1 in the Jan sales and they are filled with a battery candle (4 for £1) and a handful of sweets from a tin of heros £4. Total cost for 10 = £16.50 or £1.65 each.
The film I had from last year and the decoration is from last year's Christmas crackersBlessed are the cracked for they are the ones that let in the light

Ive contributed:
4 adult children £30 each in vouchers(will make a fuss of the 5th 'child' and her family when she comes over to her sisters wedding in May).
Son in law to be £20
Mom £20
Eldest Grandson combined Xmas and birthday vouchers (£50).
Youngest Grandson up to now £30 but will probably spend a bit more.
Hubby has spent:
£25 on his sister and her family.
He will be taking care of our youngest Xmas gift and combined birthday present.
About £15 in cards.
