Recycled Christmas Cracker


I just wanted to share with you this little recycled Christmas Cracker decoration I made..... I purchased a Jeanne d' Arc Living Magazine from Tracey @ http://frenchlarkspur.blogspot.com and the book is just wonderful... I have had it a couple days and every time I sit down I have to have it in my hands.... Tracey wrapped the book in a beautiful tissue and braid with a aged french book page and it was so lovely I had to re- purpose the lovely materials used to mail the book out to me.... The book had a couple places where it had pictures and mentioned Christmas Crackers and how to make them so I have a little decoration and a very lovely book... Oh ladies..... this book is awesome......

Hi Marietta,
thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. Nice of you to share about Jeanne d'Arc Living Magazine (didn't buy the winter issue but kind of regret that) and your recycled Xmas cracker.
Soooo cute!
have a pleasant evening
