Blast From The Past - First Footing - New Years Eve Crafty Gifts

I am still thinking about New Years Eve and First Footing, and have had another one of my ideas, but what the heck .....
First Footing 1
It’s traditional for a first footer to carry a lump of coal ……... well I have substituted coal for liquorice! But you could easily swop liqourice for coconut macaroons or nutty cluster!
First Footing 2
I got the footprint stickers from the US ages ago, I must have had about 20 packets but I have used them on so many projects, I shall be looking to order some more in the New Year as I only have a few left, I just hope I can find them again.  I think they are from Stickapotomus.
First Footing 3
I thought using the white/silver glitter card on the topper would represent a good frosty New Years Eve path!

What a lovely idea

I do think the liquorice works best though, whatever is in the bag has to represent the coal.

I love all the sweets you've mentioned! I think you should swap the liquorice for Pontefract Cake sweets or the round liquorice allsorts covered in the small balls. You can get them in black, called blackberries.

This seems like a good idea, but I'm not sure what a first footer is. Guess I'll have to Google it. :)
