Today, seeing as it is Christmas Eve, I felt like doing a festive 'make' for you all.
This time of year is perfect for Christmas crackers and being a personal sucker for them around the dinner table myself, I have decided that it is only right that I show you how to make your own quirky crackers...
What you will need...
- Clean toilet tubes
- Wrapping paper
- Sticky-tape
- Scissors
- Pretty ribbon or string- get creative!
- Sweets/ Chocolates
- Paper
- Coloured pens
- Labels
- Firstly, Roll your toilet tube up in wrapping paper and stick in place. It will look like a long tube/ poster.
- Twist one end and tie with ribbon/ string. You can colour co-ordinate the ribbon with the person if you wish- Just make sure it looks attractive!
- Write down festive jokes or unusual facts onto the paper using coloured pens, cut them out and put into tube.
- Snack-sized sweets such as Heroes or Celebrations work great in these cute crackers!
- Once you have filled up your cracker, twist the open end and tie again, with ribbon.
- Create labels for your friends so that they know which cracker is theirs.
- Voila! Your perfect Christmas cracker. Pull around the table for festive, family fun!
Happy Making! Milly xoxo
