Become a MemberAnother fun tutorial I wanted to share from the Vintage Fourth of July Celebration post is how to make these adorable DIY snack bags with kraft paper. They are especially great for potato chips or popcorn, but you can throw any kind of goodies that you want into your DIY snack bags! There’s something that kids love about having their food in individual packages that they can pick up and hold with their little fingers. It is so adorable! And let’s be honest, adults don’t mind having finger foods conveniently packed into individual servings either!
The watermelon on sticks and the caramel corn cones from the Celebration post are other options for fun finger food to serve at your Independence Day celebrations. To make these DIY snack bags, start with a roll of heavy kraft shipping paper and cut them into 10 inch squares. Next, follow the step-by-step photo tutorial below to fold your snack bags! After you have folded your DIY snack bags, you can use our vintage potato chip stickers as labels for your bags. Print the PDF download onto full-sheet label paper and then trim each label to size.
The label is essential for holding the flaps of your DIY snack bags in place. If you are not adding potato chips to your bags, you can also use some of the other stickers included in the download instead. After your snack bags are ready, browse the rest of our Fourth of July projects for more party inspiration! Follow us on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter to see all of our daily makes. Or you can head over to our membership page to start downloading! Cheers! ~ Lia

hi! can you send please only the logo?
Hi there! Sorry, I’m not able to send any individual elements of this design.
Would you happen to know a technic for making these with a flat bottom so they stay upright on their own?
Thanks
Hi there! Thanks for your question. I would suggest you try something more like my Halloween treat bags if you want a snack bag that stands up https://liagriffith.com/make-these-pretty-halloween-party-decorations-and-goody-bags/
Best of luck! Lia 🙂
Hi Lia! Love this and everything you do!! Quick question – Would you happen to know what size your classic potato chip labels are?
Hi Marissa, I put them on a full size paper so you can fit as many as possible on one sheet of label paper.
Hi Lia! I wanted to let you know we absolutely loved your post and featured it on our website! Great Job 🙂 http://www.americanretailsupply.com/64380/Customized-Kraft-Paper-Snack-Bags.html
I agree it looks really sweet 🙂
Thanks Rilane!
Love the idea, I’m going to make them for my first garden party of the season!
^_^
Great idea!
Love this idea, however where can I get kraft paper that is safe to use with food? Is the packaging kraft paper that you find at the store safe for this purpose? Thanks~
You can get certified food safe papers including kraft to use for this project.
Thanks for these, am going to try them, and put in my grandchildren a lunch boss.
You can fold to tabs up to keep the chips from spilling in the box and they can have fun opening them too.
Such a cute idea!! Would it work to use regular wrapping paper or does it need to be the thicker packaging paper?
Thanks Katlyn! I think they could be made from any kind of paper really.
Such a cute addition to the celebration table. Adds a special touch! Your instructions are so easy to follow. Thanks for so many great creative ideas. Always look forward to what you have to share.
Thanks Melinda!
Quin goig que fan!! fins i tot sembla que les patates han de ser més bones posades dins d’aquestes bosses , realment la presentació és ben important!!.
