The Paper Doll

Handmade Wedding Stationery - Magic is something you make...

Finally, for the first time ever… we’re delighted to invite you to join us in making your very own Christmas crackers, both virtually and in real life too!

 
 

Learn how to make your own set of beautiful one of a kind Christmas crackers, in the theme of your choice. Keepsake crackers that can be used for years to come, gifts for family and friends or just to enjoy an insight into the wonderful world of Paper Doll at Christmas time. A festive and fun activity to do in the comfort of your home along with Sarah online or make an occasion of it and come alone or with a friend to an in person making session.

We’ve been creating Christmas crackers for 14 years now and our crackers have had the honour of gracing the tables of so many amazing customers over the years and even lots of celebrity homes too.
