Today’s Fall Butterfly Snack Bags DIY doesn’t require ANY extra crafty skills or elaborate supplies. PROMISE!

My son even helped me in the making of these. So take note – this is great to get kids involved in the making, as well!

Today’s Fall Butterfly Snack Bags are such a great way to dress up a quick treat for the autumn season. Perfect for in the classroom during Halloween, Thanksgiving or any day during the upcoming autumn season!

These adorable and completely customizable butterfly snack baggies can be made in less than 5 minutes and with an array of dry finger foods. Think warm hues like golds, browns, yellows etc. Things like pretzels, cereal, candy corn, peanuts, Reese’s pieces and more. If you think your child will eat it – throw it in! I like including a little sweet and salty mixed together in ours. Remember – these snack bags can also be made on a budget if you buy in bulk!

These fall themed butterfly snack bags are sure to bring a smile to any child! Find all the crafty details below and recreate a few for those you love today!

And although I did mention these are perfect for in the classroom, wouldn’t this be fun as something you toss in your child’s {or spouse’s} lunch one day?! Just a thought! I bet ANY one would be surprised to receive one so don’t be afraid to think outside the box!

Fall Butterfly Snack Bag Craft Supplies:

* Large Wooden Clothespins {one per snack baggie}
* Small Wiggle Eyes
* Adhesive {like hot glue or school glue}
* Gold Pipe Cleaners {one per snack baggie}
* Small Resealable Plastic Baggies
* Large Bowl For Mixing
* Dry Finger Foods – cereal, pretzels, chocolate candies, candy corn, peanuts etc.
* optional – Sharpie Markers or Craft Paint

Directions:

* You will need ONE small sandwich baggie, ONE wooden clothespin and ONE pipe cleaner per butterfly snack.
* First start, if you like, start off by decorating your wooden clothespin with some Sharpie markers or craft paint. I personally loved the nude look of my clothespin but you might want to add some color.
* Once done with that, go ahead and glue your wiggle eyes to the clothespin so your butterfly friend can see.
* Set aside to let it dry completely.
* Repeat for each “butterfly” you want to make per snack.
* Now you are ready to assemble your treats.
* Take all your dry ingredients and mix them together in a large bowl.
* Now take a handful of your dry finger food mixture and place it in a plastic baggie {keep in mind, this is PER SNACK BAG} You don’t want it to be too full.
* Seal it off, making sure to remove as much air as you can from the inside.
* Next, using your finger, separate your mixture in two sections. {left/right – see my image for example}
* Then start scrunching the center of the baggie, so you can “pinch” the clothespin in between. It will look like butterfly wings and/or a bow.
* To finish off the fall snack baggie idea, bend/fold your gold pipe cleaner to make some antennas for your butterfly. Pinch those into the clothespin on the filled baggie as well.
* Then give away to enjoy!
* Don’t forget to snap a few pictures to share of your butterfly snacks with us! #gluedtomycrafts
