I've got cracker fillers for everyone except MIL

[TheSkiingGardener]

And she is difficult to buy for because she already has lots of stuff.

So any ideas please, looking at up to £5 and must fit into a cracker.

DMum has got a perfume atomiser, DDad has got a USB memory stick, DS has got a harmonica, not sure about DH yet but he is easier than DMIL.

Something cooking or gadget related, or something for travel or in a handbag?

Going mad trying to find something good

Handbag charm?

Mini whisk? House of Fraser had some tiny ones in last week

Mini whisk is a possible.

She'll make a rude joke about it too.....

Mini whisk. A bit over budget. Sorry.

Ooooo, that has led to an olive spoon, which would be suitably obscure I think.

An oil drizzler? They sell them in John Lewis and Robert Dyas I think

He he he.

Love the mini whisk but the joke would be too rude!

Hmmm, tempting though.

Bottle stopper?

Good idea LoveInAColdClimate but she has many. People buy her odd things every Christmas.

The mini whisk is too big for a cracker unfortunately

Would one of those silicon tube things for peeling garlic fit? It might...

Ah, that's true.

Earrings?

How about a spice or one of Willy Wonka's Chocolate tube things?

Oil drizzlers are a possible, the garlic peeler won't fit and DON'T google Willy Wonkas chocolate tubes!

The chocolate thing!

Like the chocolate. Definitely gourmet too so she would like that.

Oh my god, we have to do personal cracker fillers too?

EEK!

Item of costume jewellery from somewhere like M&S. A necklace without its packaging might fit well?

Doing your own crackers? I salute you!
Would like to do this too if I was hosting. The cost of crackers that have rubbish inside is insane.

Lottery ticket?

Eyeshadow, lippie, pretty pen for handbag, keyring, handbag charm, nylon reuseable shopping bag (rolls up small)

Bottle stoppers, ones for stopping fizz going flat, stainless steel measuring spoons, strawberry stem remover, miniature grater for nutmeg, pastry brush, mesh infuser for loose leaf tea, spaghetti measure (fill the holes with the right amount for the correct portion sizes of long or short dry spaghetti)

I can't think of any more just now!

Found it!

An enamelled type handbag hook.

Those ideas were all great girlywhirly but over the years we have bought each other more kitchen gadgets than I care to think about. Hence, I am the proud owner of a nutmeg holder (so you don't scrape your to gets when grating nutmeg)

Thanks for everyone's help.

Just found a very useful site if anyone is thinking of doing their own crackers.
