Homemade Valentine’s Day candy bags are simple to make with just a few supplies and can be used for other small treats too.
Candy bags are a popular way to give small gifts and candy to both kids and adults!
This quick and easy tutorial will show you exactly what to do.
Supplies You'll Need to Create this Project:
This post contains affiliate links.
The exact items I used are no longer available, so I link to similar products below.
Gift Bag:
Begin with your plain white lunch bag and fold over the top edge of the bag.
Ink the edge that was folded sown with a black ink pad.
This step is completely optional, I like how the inked edge looks against the white paper bag.
Apply several stripes of washi tape to the front of the bag.
Begin the stripes right under the fold.
Open the bag up and fold the edges of the washi tape around the edge of the bag.
Tie the Valentine tag onto the bag with the twine.
Add some yummy candy, my favorite is cinnamon hearts!
Isn't it so cute!
I made several to give to some friends too.
Who will you be giving your heart to this Valentine's Day?
