Good evening, this is a very late post from me today as I’ve been busy busy busy!

Today’s YouTube tutorial shows how I make my Homemade Christmas Crackers.

I tend to visit the UK in November as its a good month to see family and friends and exchange Christmas presents. Every year me and my 6 other girlfriends from school get together and have a Christmas party. Its now become my thing to make Christmas Crackers. Last year I made pink very girly ones and they went down a treat.

This is the only picture I could find.

These are a great size and very easy to make.

To make these crackers you will need…

11.1/2 x 7.1/4 patterned card for each cracker all of the papers I used where from a A3 paper pack I purchased from Lidl in the UK

WRMK envelope punch board. Do not worry if you don’t own a punch board as I show in my tutorial below alternative ways to make them.

Ribbon to tie each end.

Cracker Snaps (optional)

A sentiment for the top (optional)

For all the scoring and where to punch with the envelope punch board please check out my tutorial below.

Here are close ups of all 7 designs to give you some ideas and inspiration for your own crackers.

Hope you like this festive project from me today I have 2 other cracker designs to share with you over the coming weeks so stayed tuned for those.

Thank you for stopping by.
