Fill Your Own Christmas Crackers

This Christmas I decided to fill my own crackers again.  See my previous attempt here.

I found some nice, part assembled fill your own crackers at John Lewis


But when they arrived I felt they were a little too plain




So while filling them with some carefully selected chocolates,  I decided to add a little sparkle with glittery snowflakes, shiny ribbon and some glitter glue


The result





Lots of sparkle in colours matching the decorations on our Christmas tree


What do you think? An improvement?


Next year I fancy something like this



I'd better get started soon on those gingerbread men!!
