DIY Christmas Bon Bon Supplies

DIY Christmas Bon Bon Supplies

Make your own Christmas Crackers from scratch with these essential DIY Christmas Bon Bon supplies – cracker snaps, tissue paper hats, cardboard tubes and a range of corny jokes, and trivia questions.

The DIY supplies give you the chance to get creative with your eco friendly Christmas. The curated jokes and PG-rated trivia questions are a simple way to add some fun at the table.

To make your own DIY Christmas bon bons, simply upcycle cardboard rolls from around the home (eg toilet rolls, cardboard tubes from the haberdashery shop, foil cardboard rolls) or use the cardboard rolls available here, add the right inner gifts, snaps, hats and jokes, then wrap in either upcycled papers or fabric. Snap – your eco friendly Christmas celebration is ready!

Details

Choose from five (5) DIY Christmas Bon Bon supplies:

• Bon Bon cracker snaps
• Brightly coloured tissue paper hats
• Brand new cardboard tubes
• Corny jokes (available as a downloadable or printed),
• Trivia questions (available as a downloadable only)

For eco friendly gift ideas that fit inside a DIY bon bon, read my story on DIY Christmas Bon Bons with Good Gifts or buy a selection of these gifts here, from ReNewy Living.

If you’d prefer plain kraft paper flatpack bon bons or these beautiful Reusable Christmas Bon Bons, both are available here.

Postage and Delivery

I highly recommend and prefer Express Post to ensure peace-of-mind.

Express Post guarantees your DIY Christmas Bon Bon supplies will arrive before Christmas (as per Australia Post cut-off dates), especially when there are increased delays with Standard Postage.
