holiday: DIY Valentine Treat Bag

Wednesday, January 30, 2013 45 Comments

 

DIY Valentine Treat Bag https://www.mamamiss.com ©2013

Why hello there!

After I posted my Valentine Snack Mix last week, I got several requests for a tutorial on how I made the little treat bag.  Funny thing, I made it in all of 5 minutes!  I was in the middle of shooting the photos of the snack mix and it just wasn’t coming together the way I wanted.  So, I quickly brainstormed & scoured the house for supplies and came up with the little bag you see above.  A super-duper-wooper (V’s new phrase when she’s describing something spectacular ;) easy Valentine treat bag.

And here’s how you can put it all together to hold your Valentine treats in 10 easy steps!

 

Supplies/Tools





  • scalloped edged scissors
  • regular scissors
  • washi tape
  • baker’s twine
  • double stick tape
  • wooden heart buttons
  • kraft paper small treat bags

Steps

  1. Cut the top off of your bag to the desired length with the regular scissors.
  2. Trim all the cut edges off of both pieces with your scalloped scissors.
  3. Wrap washi tape all the way around the trimmed off piece.
  4. Add double stick tape to all of the interior edges of this piece.
  5. Place piece over & around the bag.
  6. Pat down & secure tape onto bag.
  7. Thread button with twine.
  8. Knot twine on back of button to shift the button straight & secure it.
  9. Tie twine around bag and knot it.
  10. Trim knot.
  11. Voilà, a pretty little treat bag, super-duper-wooper easy :)
  12. Add your Valentine Snack Mix!

These two... I couldn’t get them to walk away from our science table.

🐚🌊☀️When we went to the beach last week, V found this spiral thingee (official term 😆) way far back on the sand, near the dunes... it had obviously washed up a long time ago.  She brought it to us & my mom (PHD science professor-lol good to have one of those in your back pocket, huh?!) identified it as a Whelk Egg Casing. 

🔍🧐 🐚After Googling, based on the details of the casing, we determined it is an egg casing from a Knobbed Welk. 

🐚🔍🕵🏼‍♀️Whelk eggs are fertilized internally and laid in capsule packets. Strings of these connected egg capsules are usually one to three feet in length, comprised of up to 160 capsules, and each casing containing 40-100 eggs. These eggs are SUPER TINY - ALREADY FORMED - LITTLE BABY SHELLS (swipe to the last shot)!!! The mother whelk anchors one end of the string onto rocks, shells, or sand on the sea floor for safety. Apparently, only about one percent will hatch successfully. If they emerge successfully from the egg case, they can expect to live for about 10 to 15 years if they reach maturity.

Pretty cool huh?! #youlearnsomethingneweveryday

Loose Parts Tray 🔩⚙️🗝 We’ve had this Loose Parts Tray 🔩⚙️🗝

We’ve had this loose parts tray since my kids were wee little ones and it is still utilized to this day.  I just happened to catch a kiddo mid-way through mandala making today. 

🌀💠🔆You can theme it out however you want - nature parts, color parts... think beads, buttons, bits & bobs... take a stroll down the small parts aisle at the craft store or your local hardware store to find some inspiration. 

🖇📏🧮 I love how loose part trays allow open-ended creative play.  Kiddos can explore the different textures and shape concepts in the tray to create structures, free play, or even work on math!

💡What would you use your loose parts tray for?
