Thrifty Secret Santa

I wonder if someone can help please. I need some ideas for a secret santa gift and the theme is "something to wear that isn't clothes". It mustn't cost a lot of money (preferably from poundland!!)

Any ideas gratefully received.

Many thanks.

    A badge, cheap Christmassy or other jewellery if a woman. A home made cardboard crown to best all the tearing paper ones from crackers around Christmas lunch.

    If you go for a badge, you can stick a saftey pin on the back of a scratch card with something removable that will not damage itlike blue tack. (or put the scratch card in a plastic card holder if it fits, or a cut down plastic file thingy). The best gift is always hope, and a scratch card is just that!
