Festive Token

Christmas crackers always look festive.

I love anything with surprises inside, don't you?

It's easy to whip a few of these up as party favors,

or another last minute hostess gift.

Start with a piece of heavy cardstock paper, fold horizontally in half, and cut.

Roll each half into a tube, securing with double stick tape.

Fill the tubes with any assortment of tiny treats,
then carefully cover tube with wrapping paper;
again securing with double stick tape.

 Leave enough paper (about 4 or 5") on the ends
to cinch and tie off with pretty ribbon.
