Homemade Bon Bons..

Not sure why I make so much work for myself sometimes but once I get an idea stuck in my head I just have to make a way to do it! So here is my project for Christmas week...

I think homemade Bon Bons are such a great idea cos you can put personalised gifts in them for each person and they are so much nicer than the shop bought ones!

I started with some plain silver shiney paper for the "case" of the bon.... heres how you cut them...

I decided some cute plain white and silver chrissy material would top them off so I just did a simple hem down both sides and then glued the material in before rolling them up... probably the most time consuming!

Heres an example of some of the gifts I included...

Keyrings for the boys
Little Avon sample of makeup and perfume for the ladies
Christian Christmas stickers and a balloon for kids
Plus a cute little texta with a roll on stamp...not pictured
Chrissy hats, jokes and a snapper of course in everyones!
Plus assorted choccies!

So they become a gift in themselves basically!

I finished them off with some red organza ribbon and found some printable name tags online that I printed and attached with some gorgeous silver tie...

I'll take a pic on Christmas Day of the table all set up....hopefully these will just make it!
