I made Wayne and my girls some treat bags :)
I picked the plain white boxes up from Dollar Tree, when we were in the States.
I decorated them with some really old pattern papers.
Stamped the ticket with my only Valentines stamp I have...or at least close to my reach, teehee.
Tied a little bow...that kind of drooped...with crochet thread.
Stamped the ticket with my only Valentines stamp I have...or at least close to my reach, teehee.
The treats I added are Cadbury mini eggs and some cashews...sweet and salty, yum.
I didn't realize how anal I was until I realized I had to count out each egg so they all got the same amount. After that I made sure I didn't count the cashews or make sure each bag got the same coloured eggs, lol.
Here is a really quick video I put together about this project.
Onto My Day:
Was a bit of a taxi service again today.
Then cleaned up my scrap/craft room a bit..but I have so much more to do in there.
Thankful Thursday:
That I am able to be there when my girls need me.

Hello Tracy!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and leaving sweet comments on my bird house... In real it's so cute, it was just fussing with that roof top that was a bit challenging....Love your treat bag above and the yummies inside of it too...
Hope your Valentine's Day was awesome...
So sweet! You did a lovely job and what a lovely thought too!!!
ReplyDeleteHappyValentine's Day! Cute treat boxes, I think I would like the yummies you included.
ReplyDeleteSuper cute treat bag! Hope you had a really sweet Valentine's Day. :)
ReplyDeleteLove these Tracy and great idea for them. I think the OCD comes from having kids! When we share things out to them - they always have to have the same and the same colours!! and everything. So I think you were really good in not counting the cashews LOL!
ReplyDeleteTracy those are adorable! I don't think I've seen those at the Dollar Tree, but it's been awhile since I've stopped in there. Good reason for a trip, right? You make me laugh, counting out the eggs, lol. That treat does look yummy though!
ReplyDeletethese are so adorable!!!! love it!
ReplyDeleteYour bags turned out sooooo cute! And that Valentine ticket stamp...I die!!!! I would so love to have that! Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteThese are so sweet! Love the stamped ticket!
ReplyDeleteVery cute treat bags! Love the ticket! I love the salty sweet combo too, so I know these were yummy!
ReplyDeleteCute bags! I like that you made something for all your girls. We celebrate each year with a homecooked family dinner because my daughter does not like V-day as she calls it, and I always make her special treats. Last night was chocolate covered strawberries and hot fudge brownie sundaes.
ReplyDeleteCute treat bags, the mix of the sweet and salty would be very yummy :)
ReplyDeleteThese are really cute boxes, hope your family enjoy's them, :)
ReplyDeleteso cute and a very nice idea. i know they loved this gift!
ReplyDeleteHi Tracy, those treat bags are soo cute. Luv the idea! I made some treats for my girls also. They are teens but I don't care! Sometime stop by my blog at 4-evercrafter.blogspot.com to see them:)
ReplyDeleteLol, I was wondering if you balanced the colours. ;0)
ReplyDeleteI really like the ticket super nice touch to the treat bags.
ReplyDeleteDarling!! I didn't put that much effort into Valentine's for my family. Poor guys!
ReplyDeleteThey look yummy...hey...where's mine? teehee
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute. Great way to use up some old paper!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun gift! I love that you counted the eggs. I would too, I wouldn't want someone to be upset that someone else got more or less than they did.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely the world's best procrastinator :) I am the worst. As I sit here blogging when I should be baking for a coworker's baby shower tomorrow! Oops!
