These cute Christmas goodie treat bags are a great way to give a little something to everyone for the holidays – whether its for coworkers, friends, family, children or acquaintances. Depending on the season, you can also make these for Halloween, Birthdays, Easter, etc! Everyone is always up for a bag full of goodies, and this is a quick and cheap way to put together some goodie bags at the last minute!
Since I’m filled with Christmas spirit this year I decided at last second to put together these goodie bags for all my coworkers. I made 10 bags and 1 tin box full of goodies (so 11 people) – all for only $25 at Target! Well, Target was having a 25% off sale on all the candy bags, but Walmart and the Dollar Tree may have even cheaper supplies! It may take about an hour or two to put together the bags (depending on how precise you are, like me) so they are pretty quick and cheap to make! It also gives a nice gesture to people knowing that you took the time to give them something for the holidays.
SUPPLIES:
- Treat Bags (mine came in a pack of 15 with twist ties)
- Tin box
- 3 candy bags
- 3 Santa Skittles packs
- 4 Jelly Bean Christmas mix boxes
- 12 Candy Canes
- Trail Mix
- 10 Wrapped Cookie Buiscuts
- Extra ribbon from wrapping or around the house 😉
These are the supplies I used, which was enough for 10 bags and the tin box. Of course the amount may vary depending on how many bags you are making, but I’m just notating the items I used for my bags. Be creative and get other types of items you like too!
Target had a few good deals like the 3 for $5 Santa Skittles, the treat bags for $2.50, the tin can for $3.00 each, and each bag of candy was under $4 each.
I made all my coworkers goodie bags, and for my boss I put his goodies in a tin box – you know, since he is the boss. I put red confetti inside the tin box then placed each item inside neatly to make it look presentable:
How cute is that?! I put an even amount of goodies in each of the bags as well, then sealed them with extra ribbon I had. I think they came out super cute for how last minute this idea was, so I feel they are a great gesture for anyone you have in your life!
Let me know how you design your goodie bags!!
