Hello all,
Well Christmas Eve is upon us which means lots of cooking and crafting in out household. No mad panics or stresses just me and mum enjoying spending quality time together making food for our small number of guests to help us consume.
Earlier this morning Mum decided to make a start on our crackers for tomorrows dinner and we have a simple way to make shop brought crackers a little bit more exciting than the basic plastic useless toy that normally gets discarded within minutes.
So why not adapt some existing crackers but with your own personal touches. We got a box of 12 crackers from Waitrose for just £5 - bargain (there are only 5 of us for dinner tomorrow so they will do for next year too!). Mum has then been on the hunt for little individual gifts for us all that can fit in out crackers.
Simply untie the tags which hold one end of the cracker together, open it up slightly so that you can pop your little gift inside and retie - what could be easier than that! Of course you can then adorn the crackers with more exciting ribbon or put a label on for each of your guests. Easy, slightly cheating, craft for Christmas Eve morning.
Ive no idea whats in any of the crackers as Mum kept it a secret - something else to look forwards to tomorrow.
