DIY: Scratch N Sniff Valentine Treat Bags

15 years ago

These scratch ‘n sniff Valentine treat bags smell as SWEET as they look! Emily had so much fun making these, and the colors were quite vibrant!

To make your own, you will need: white paper lunch bags (we found ours at Target), unsweetened powdered drink mix (ie. Kool Aid – very inexpensive), and a bit of ribbon.

Emily was so excited to make the paint with the unsweetened powdered drink mix! We had done this one other time, and it was big hit. To make the paint, mix the packet of powder with 2 Tbsp. of water.

We used heart-shaped cookie cutters to trace our designs onto the bags.

Then it was time for painting!!

…and sniffing!!

Once the paint was dry, we filled the bags with Valentine’s Day goodies, folded the tops down, and used a hole puncher to make holes for a bit of ribbon.

So much fun!!
