"Sip Sip Hooray" Birthday Silly Straws with FREE Printables!

3.15.2012

It's little Eva's 5th birthday today! We were up early, showered, dressed and ready to take tons of fun things to pre-school today. We are in charge of the treat so I made these cupcakes. No biggie, just a white cake mix topped with strawberry frosting.

Pin It

Next up were the class favors. I found a package of 8 silly straws at Wal*Mart for $1.99 and then came home and designed these tags that slip right on! Super cute and super-inexpensive! And what 5 year old doesn't love a silly straw?!  I used my Silhouette Cameo and the Print+Cut feature to perfectly cut out each circle and the holes for the straw.  I love the Silhouette so much! It makes making custom party favors like this a breeze!

I thought I had better share a free printable with my wonderful readers! So here you go! I changed the tag so it doesn't say "Eva"...I mean, that may isolate some of you.

I pinned several Valentine ideas for my kids to choose from. My 9 year old boy chose this one. Thanks for posting it and providing a PDF for the tag! The straws at Walmart were only $1.49 for 8 when I found them. Score! I saw some at the Dollar Tree today in a package of 6 as well. They were not translucent, however, but still very usable. Thanks for the post.

I LOVE these ideas and am a first grade teacher. I can't open your sip-sip hooray Valentine's Day labels though! What am I doing wrong:( It says I don't have permission.....

I love the non food treat. Is there a way to change “MY” to a name like Emma? TIA

SNubile said...

Thank you for the Valentine's day printable. It prints out nicely and makes a great non-food holiday treat for the classroom.

Hi, Thank you for blessing us with these awesome labels. I'm unsure if you still have this document since it was originally posted in 2012. However if you still have it and won't mind sending it in a word document I would truly appreciate it. I would love to make these for my grandson's 5th birthday and would love to add his name. If you are able please forward to yjimenez@ecsnyc.org

HL said...
