If anyone wants to have crackers, you can buy 'cracker snaps' on Ebay really cheaply, which would allow you to make your own, using whatever paper/ribbon/etc you want and you can then choose the contents.
I made some last year for the dinner table on xmas day and they were really easy to make.

Delighted i was of some help to ye

Organza bags:
I would recommend paying alittle more for the organza bags from someone in Britain or Ireland, we ordered them for almost nothing from Hong Kong and they arrived the day before the wedding!! In the meantime we had given up on them and ordered more from England. In fairness the bags from China were much more superior, but not worth the hassle.
Ribbon:
Post up pics when you have them finished, would love to see!

We are getting married on Jan 7th so we are having a winter theme rather than a christmas theme, but we (or I am) thinking of making ginger bread men and having them as a favour. They can be made a couple of weeks before and once kept in an air tight tin, will stay fresh. I think it could be cute!
