I sometimes do pots of jewels as my youngest can’t have dairy and it’s not always easy to find dairyfree alternatives in gold packaging.
You could even do a silver version if that matched your colour scheme
Our table is going to be full of table gifts , I love this idea!
Dunelm have some little dip bowls for 75p each which would be fab to do this with.

Then when we were all sat down I told them to turn them over and they loved them!

I also put a little mini box of Hotel Chocolat by each place setting, the ones with just 4 choccies in.
Oh where did you get the coasters please Nana?

Home bargains do tiny wooden puzzles that would be great for a table gift. They are pretty cheap too, I am sure they are less than £1.

I've usually got a small sized game ready for the table. So that between courses we can pause and play and they have something to do while I'm sorting the next course. I've had reideeer racing crackers before, or table size jenga, paper aeroplane making placemats. All create chaos but all good fun!

I normally just do the Lindt mini chocolate santa next to each plate and crackers (this year with teddy bears inside). But this thread has given me some great ideas!

I ordered personalised drink stirrers from Etsy - might pop them on the table instead of stockings.

I absolutely adore these! Have been looking to see if I can buy something similar but can't seem to find anything. You are very clever!

I once wrapped boxed baubles with the year on for girlfriends I had over for dinner and put them on top of the plate setting - they were from the Pier - that’s how long ago it was !

Rather than table gifts/crackers, we are going to play ‘pass the presents dice game’ . Looks good fun and something different. Will get some silly presents and some nicer ones that everyone might try and ‘steal’
