Craft kit to make twelve fill your own crackers in a lovely colour blend, designed with a theme in mind but knowing that they will also suit many other themes and occasions.

Supplied as a kit to make twelve crackers, containing pre-cut premium quality cracker boards, cracker snappy strips, jokes, our exclusive adjustable paper hats and a link to our online inspiration for assembly.

You will love our exclusive adjustable paper hats. They fit heads of all shapes and sizes.

You will just need to add some good glue or tape to attach the snappy strips and ties of your choice, this could be raffia or ribbon.

Each cracker is offered in two sizes, standard and large. When assembled the standard cracker is approximately 30cm long and the barrel (where the fillers go) is 9.5cm long and 5.8cm wide. The large cracker is approximately 37cm long and the barrel is 13.5cm long and 6.8cm wide.

The board is a premium quality 250gsm board, it is biodegradable and fully recyclable, as are the hats and jokes.

Although generic jokes are included in this kit, you could also take a look at our extensive range of other jokes to add into the pack. We have a huge selection, including Christmas jokes, wedding mottos, Dad jokes, cat jokes, dog jokes, risque jokes and many, many more listed in our shop.

With the exception of crackers purchased as a bespoke order, our cracker making kits cannot be resold in any format or in any environment. Further, although our plain crackers can be used to make crackers and then resold, our designed and printed crackers cannot be resold in any format, due to copyright restrictions.

Collection in Person

Sorry, we do not have retail premises and do not offer collections at the current time.

 

Busy Periods & Weather Issues

Whilst the snow never seems to make a difference to Santa, both Royal Mail and Parcelforce are sometimes impacted by this. 

Similarly, Santa seems to relish the task of delivering billions of parcels in one night but postal carriers do sometimes struggle with seasonal surges in volumes.  

Please allow adequate delivery time when placing your order in the weeks building up to Christmas or during other problematic times for the delivery services, such as extreme weather conditions.

Returns and Refunds

Customer Satisfaction

 

We will do everything that we can to get your orders delivered to you in a timely way and in perfect condition.  

 

We pick everything carefully, check these and pack them with care.  Everything that Santa does, just without the stocking and gift bows!

 

Despite our best efforts, mistakes and damages do, regrettably, occasionally happen.   If this does happen, we will do our absolute best to fix it.  

 

Of course, you may also have changed your mind, or had one too many of the mulled wines when placing your order…. That’s no problem…

 

For all enquiries regarding returns and refunds, please read the guidelines below and then message us at returns@homeatchristmas.co.uk, with as much information as possible and pictures, if relevant.  We will then get back to you within one working day.

 

Cancellations & Alterations Before Despatch

Our orders are all released to our warehouse for picking and packing by our Christmas elves at 8am and 12pm (midday) each day, which may include weekends and bank holidays during busy periods.

 

If you have placed an order, where this will not have been passed to our busy elves to pick and pack, and wish to cancel or change this, please send us full details to returns@homeatchristmas.co.uk

 

After the order has been released to our warehouse, no changes or cancellations are possible to the order, sorry.  However, please feel free to return these upon receipt.

 

Returns Where You Change Your Mind

It’s no problem if you find the items you have ordered are unsuitable.  Please just send us a message to returns@homeatchristmas.co.uk, letting us know that you are returning the items for a refund. Please include your order number in your message, together with details of which items are being returned.  You do not need to wait for an acknowledgement.

The items must be returned unused, in the original undamaged product packaging and received by us within 30 days of your receipt of the order.  Please ensure that you protect the items to avoid damage in transit.  Santa can deliver gifts without any padding or protection but postal carriers generally can’t!
