Thanks for Popping by
Hi everyone! Hope you are all having a great week! I have found myself not knowing exactly what to do with my time- since Grandma came to pick up the kids for a few days this week, during their Spring Break.
They are having a great time, and I am glad that they can spend these special times with their grandparents. I am sure it will be something they always remember. They left after lunch time- and I spent the rest of the day cleaning, doing a little shipping and doing a little crafting, Mr. Pink and I had dinner out, and then watched a movie.
The project I have today is a fun little idea for a ‘thank you’ gift- or favor. I used the 1×8 clear bags from CLEARBAGS.com, and filled them with popcorn kernels, using a funnel. I then topped it with a print and cut by Ginny Nilson from the Silhouette store using my Cameo.
I used a Pink by Design sentiment stamp from the Sweet Grams stamp set on a handout banner. I can’t tell you how much I love this stamp set–makes favor-making a breeze and helps you make ordinary candy and snacks into a fun gift!
Also- on the back of the popcorn treat stick- I added the directions for making your own Microwave Popcorn using regular ol’ kernels and a paper bag! Did you know you could do that? You don’t even need those pre made microwave popcorn bags!
That’s it– fun, different and easy, peasy!
Thanks for POPPING by my blog today!! (hehe)

AWESOME idea Sarah!! And NO, I didn’t know you could make popcorn that way!! I am totally doing that! Since Bria can’t have dairy, and we don’t have a hot air popper, she has never had popcorn!! Now I can make her some!!
Enjoy your free time!!
Wow! I didn’t know you could do that! Now I gotta go try it!!
This is such a great idea! Those stamps are perfect for candy/treat gifts!
What a fun project! I love it.

Thanks so much for sharing the fun treat and the great information about how to make popcorn in the microwave! Enjoy your spring break! Sounds like the kids are really having a memorable one between what your fun day earlier and then spending time with the grandparents!
What a cute idea! I seriously need to try microwaving my own popcorn!
Love it, Sarah!
Great idea. Every few months my husband runs a snack bar at his sister’s kiddy beauty pagents. Ther is always popcorn left over so I will try this tip.
