Make Your Own Old Fashioned Paper Snack Bags

Oh my gosh these Old Fashioned paper snack bags that you can make yourself are too die for cute! Lia Griffith has all the full details on her website. After I saw them on her site I just had to make some!

Kraft Paper Snack Bag Directions

The full tutorial and the cute old fashioned sticker tags can be found on Lia Griffith’s website. You need to check out her amazing crafts! So many to choose from. Some are only available through her membership but I think it’s totally worth it!

Step 1- Start with a 10″ square piece of Kraft brown paper or wrapping paper which is what I used. I used pinking shears to give that wavy edge to all sides of the square.

Step 2- Fold the paper into a triangle by matching edges. I am not a perfectionist so mine are not totally perfect but they still turned out adorable!

Step 3- Take the right side of the paper snack bag and fold it over the left side.

Step 4- Now you can fold the left side over to the right side of the bag. You can see your little snack bag is starting to take shape!

Step 5- OK now fold one piece of the top layer down. I love that this wrapping paper is two sided. One side is brown and the other is bright red! So perfect for the 4th of July!

Step 6- Attach the sticker! You can find these darling old fashioned printable tags on Lia Griffith’s site. There are lots of other super cute printables that match this old fashioned theme. So make sure you check them all out.

I am not receiving any compensation from Lia Griffith for this post. I just loved this cute idea for my own 4th of July celebration and thought I would share this with all of you.

Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!

  • Oh, Karin, I love these adorable origami snack bags! And so cool that you can make them with just about any scrap paper, too! My grandkids will love these! Pinned, and I'm happy to be featuring you at Tuesday Turn About tomorrow!

    • Julie! Thank you sooo much! They really are the cutest little snack bags! I need to make some more!

      Thank you for the feature tomorrow!

      Hugs my friend!

  • These are so cute, Karin! I wouldn't want to use them, though. I'd save them (God only knows why!!!)...look at them, and then think, "why didn't I use these, they're adorable!". I'm odd like that. ;) Also, the little boy and that face are just adorable. Have a happy 4th of July!

    • Mary Beth,
      I totally know what you are saying! They are so dang cute that you almost don’t want to use them! But I totally am going to :) they are so easy to make that I can easily make more! Maybe even in different colors through the summer! 😂 Thanks for stopping by!
      Hugs,
      Karin
