Make-your-own Christmas cracker kit, 15 flat-packed boxes

About this product

The kit contains 15 flat-packed paper cracker boxes in 3 designs, 5 of each, with a tartan pattern listed in the specs. It also contains 15 ribbons of 50 cm each, 15 joke cards and prizes. Each finished cracker is about 25 cm (10 in) long, and the gift box measures about 30.5 x 30.5 x 5.5 cm.

These are not traditional crackers: the listing says they have no snap, so they do not pop, and they come unfolded, so every box has to be folded and tied before use. The title also mentions hats, but the contents list does not, so do not count on them.

What to use it for

Fold each box into a cracker, close it with a ribbon and put one at each place on the table. At about 25 cm long, 15 crackers cover a large dinner or a full table of guests.

Care and safety

Keep the pack flat and dry until you are ready to fold the boxes. The material is paper, so wipe off dust with a dry cloth and do not wash it.
