    I made my own last year and used oats, gold glitter and some chopped up gold tinsel!

    You should use edible glitter as the birds might eat it!

    The non toxic glitter is fine because its not absorbed by the body, don't use tinsel because its not good for the birds.!

    Last year I bought a box of sugar crystals from B&M (about 70p ish) and coloured them red and green using food colouring. Left them overnight in the airing cupboard, they looked really good.

    Did you mix the sugar crystals with oats, or leave them as they are?

    Or Porridge Oats and Sprinkles (the ones you sprinkle onto fairy cakes etc).

    We do the oats and glitter thing too.
    Here is the poem we put on the bags.


    Sprinkle on the grass at night
    The moon will make it sparkle bright
    As Santa's reindeer fly and roam
    This will guide them to your home.
