DIY Graduation cap PARTY FAVOR & TINY TASSEL tutorial - Fill with candy with school colors or theme

These are so cute! Great graduation party favor idea. 

I made these for a friend with the school logo but included a FREE downloadable tag in GOLD & SILVER for Class of 2019 & Class of 2020 below. 

I used the same cups for the movie candy from our RED CARPET event.

Supplies
Cups
Brads
Cotton embroidery floss
Double sided tape
Candy
Printed tags

I filled cups with M&M's matching the school colors but you can fill with any treat or candy. 

I found these mini brads at Michael's with 3 different colors. 

Black embroidery floss.

Super easy way to make 4 mini tassels.
Open ends of the skein into loops. I tied them together at each end with floss. Leave a lot of extra floss at the end so you can attach them when you are done. 

Removed the paper wrappers and tie the floss in the center on each long side. 

Then cut the floss in the middle on the left side and again on the right side of the center where tied.
Fold the two center tassels in half. You will now have 4 pieces.
Then wrap floss a few times near the top and tie. Cut excess floss. 

I trimmed tags.

To attach the tassel I pressed the brad in the center of the tag.

Before bending the brad, measure the length of the tassel and tie a knot. Place under the brad and bend to secure.

So cute!

I love this idea for a party favor or as table decorations.

DIY Dungeons & Dragons pendant / keychain / necklace - dragon eye - D&D or How to Train Your Dragon party favor idea

Being the Mom of a Dungeon Master is serious business. 
I always try to have D&D related snacks, treats, or little gifts. 

I made necklaces & key chains for the next session. 

Remember my mini glass jar pendants? I made some with dragon scales to match the dragon eyes.

 I put a few on suede cords to wear as a necklace.

 I saw these cool set of eyes at Michael's. They look like dragon, cat, and human eyes.


I walked around the store with one eye and tested the size with every jewelry setting to see what would fit. I found two. One was on clearance for $2.77 but they only had three and the other came in a set of six but already had a flower pattern sealed in the pendant. 

No problem. Sharpie to cover the edges and used super glue to attach. 

DONE! 


I really like the larger pendant.

I like just he dragon eye on the key chain BUT then I found these cool mini metal books (that open) and dragon claws.

I used the mini books on a necklace chain instead of the key chain.

I found jumbo glitter in the embossing section at Michael's.

Instead I made mini glass jars with dragon scales. 
I also added a small confetti with text. So cute!


The confetti doesn't stay on top but you can see it if you shake the jar.


After looking at the eyes it was just printed paper glued to glass. Next time I might try to paint my own. 

I made D&D chocolate dipped oreos with tags.


I usually have pizza and candy trays too. 

Sour Patch Kids, Sweettarts, Nerds, Spree, Bottlecaps, and Airheads Extreme Bites.

Whoppers, M&M's, Mini Twix, Mini Snickers, Mini Milky Way, and Crunch Bunch.


Next I'm making chocolate D&D dice!
