I am making crackers to put a lottery ticket in for my family and I am then putting them on the dinner table as place settings. Quite easy to make crackers if you start saving some tubes now. HTH.

I don't know about making it interesting, but one year my brother gave my hubby some money and put it inside a cd case. Obviously, hubby thought that it was going to be a cd, which puzzled him as there wasn't any that he wanted. Have to say that we both burst out laughing when we saw what it actually was!

Hi, there is already a link about this, its called a pot of gold - sorry dont know how to post a link for it, but should come up if you type into the search box.
Basically someone is making a gold pot filling it with gold coins, and putting the lottery ticket in there. Sounds pretty good idea

Hopefully someone will be along in a minute and give you the link. HTH

I'm sticking my lottery tickets in crackers - one for each dinner guest

If you want to be specific you could put a gift label on the cracker

These would make nice place settings...they're £7 for six at the moment with 7 hrs to go. Filled with coins and a gold gift tag attached I think they'd look great....and no its not my auction.
