Experience the Magic of Christmas with Our 8 Foot Artificial Christmas Trees
When it comes to decorating your 8 foot artificial Christmas trees, you probably already have it down to the theme that you are going to use. However, one element that many people are looking to do this year is to ensure that their 8 foot artificial Christmas trees theme is in line with the rest of the decor that they use throughout their home. Why is this?
It creates a super cohesive look and really makes your home scream “Christmas!” to all those who enter. For those who will be hosting a dinner this year, ensuring that the decor throughout your home matches the 8 foot artificial Christmas trees in your house is going to give it that wow factor that you have been hoping to achieve. With this being said, have you thought about making Christmas Crackers to put onto the table?
Christmas crackers are small items that your guests will crack open for a small token gift. Think of this as a party favor that you would hand out to those who attended. While you can find Christmas crackers online and in store, you can also make your own.
Transform Your Home into a Winter Wonderland with Our Stunning 8 Foot Artificial Christmas Trees
This will allow you to go with a look that fits right in with the 8 foot artificial Christmas trees in your home. So, get to making these with the following steps:
1. Set your cracker aside until it is dry before beginning to decorate the outside. You can skip this step if you use patterned paper. We suggest that you use patterned paper in the style that fits with your 8 foot artificial Christmas trees. Not only will it make the craft go faster, but it can really match the decor better.
2. Make sure the longest sides of your A4 piece of paper are at the top and bottom of the table when you place it face down on it. Cut your cardboard tube to shape if necessary and position it in the middle of the paper, lengthwise.
3. Using a pair of scissors, lightly score your paper at each end of the tube, taking care not to cut through the paper. Alternately, you can cut out small diamond shapes (templates are available online). Your cracker ends will be easier to make because of this.
4. Make a single, wide tube by wrapping your paper around the cardboard tube, slightly overlapping the edges, and gluing it in place. Your cracker will not break apart because the cardboard tube will give it more support.
Now, what you can do to make these more personalized is to place a name on each cracker and put it on the table as to where you want this person to sit. Guests who see these will know that you took a lot of time to make them, and it simply shows how much you care. So, what do you think about using Christmas crackers at your holiday table this year? It could be that small touch that makes all the difference!
