Bonny bonbons

/img/2012/housegarden/Bonbonspic.jpg
Bonbons by MAKE

Get some bang for very few bucks with these gorgeous Christmas crackers.

For each cracker you will need:

  • One cardboard toilet paper roll
  • One printout of the cracker template on A4 paper
  • Coloured string and sticky tape
  • Small surprises for inside. These could include tissue-paper crowns, small lollies, small stationery items, balloons, handwritten jokes and tiny toys.

Instructions
1. Download your template then colour in your cracker with textas or pencils and decorate the trees with stickers.
2. Cut out the rectangular shape of the cracker wrapper.
3. Centre the cardboard roll between the dotted lines and wrap the paper around. Secure with tape.
4. Scrunch and then tie one end with string.
5. Tuck your surprises inside and scrunch and tie the other end.
6. Cut out the gift tag and either tie or glue on.

This project is from multidisciplinary design firm MAKE
