Make Christmas Day pop with a personalised handmade bonbon that doubles as a place card for your dinner guests.
Step 1
Cut an empty paper towel tube into three equal sections.
Step 2
Space sections of tube evenly along kraft paper and mark with pencil, allowing for a border either side of tube. Cut kraft paper into sections.
Step 3
Place toys, sweets or jokes in the centre of each bonbon. Remember to add cracker snaps to ensure your day goes off with a bang.
Step 4
Roll a piece of paper around a tube until there is no cardboard showing, then twist each end. Repeat with remaining tubes.
Step 5
Use twine or ribbon to wrap around twists and decorate bonbons.
