This weekend my family and I celebrated my dad’s 61st
birthday at the beach, and when there’s beach, fire, and good company—there are
s’mores! I’d planned on making these s’more kits when I found out we were going
to beach for his birthday, and when I started prepping them the night before I
thought this would be too cute NOT to share on my blog.
Since I’m a blogger I tend to have some pretty random things
on hand—for DIY’s and such. So when I was creating these S’more Kits I pulled
out all the favors boxes and bags I had in my closet. I ended up having two
types of treat bags, and a set of gable boxes. I first tried the gable box but
quickly discovered that the full size Hersey bars didn’t fit in that box—so I
tried out the 5 x 7 Kraft bags and they seemed to fit nicely. Not only did all
the s’more ingredients fit great into the Kraft favor bags—they also seemed
perfect for a male’s birthday party.
I used my Lawn Fawn alphabet stamp set, Milo’s ABCs, to
create the ‘Happy Birthday’ sentiment; and, I used the ‘Dad’ sentiment from the
Avery Elle stamp set, The Man, to complete the ‘Happy Birthday Dad’ on the bag.
I think it came out really nice. To the right of the bags I show how I
organized the chocolate bar, crackers, and marshmallows into the treat bag.
There is enough for two S’mores in each package.
Lastly, I closed them by folding the top of the treat bag
over, and I created a pennant flag with a ‘S’more?’ sentiment. My dad is known
for cracking cheesy jokes—the kind that are so unfunny that they become super
funny, haha. So I thought this pun would be cute.
Well I hope you enjoyed this easy DIY!
