I’m not a crafty person. I WANT to be crafty. I have huge, grand ideas for crafts and a massive Pinterest board filled with things I would love to make…if I had the talent and the time. Still, I like the whole Zen-ness of crafting. it’s relaxing, and as a high strung person, I definitely need all the relaxing I can get.

Magnetic Valentine’s Day Treat Pails for Kids

The supplies for this craft all came from Oriental Trading Company. Everything comes in sets of 12, so these are great Valentine’s Day party favors. If you don’t need all 12, save the little pails for other crafts. I used them in my movie night post for candy!

How to make it:

It’s crazy easy! For the cupcake one, I followed the directions on the craft. I added the magnet to the back and stuck it on the treat pail. Fill it up and that’s it! I’m really bummed that the cupcake kit is gone. If you want to make this particular design, you can still do it using foam sheets.

I found this awesome template on DeviantArt. Just use markers to draw on the eyes, nose, mouth and little hearts. The upside to totally DIYing it, you can add any message where the “Be Mine” is.

This DIY Magnetic Valentine's Day treat pail is a fun craft for kids or a great party favor! It only takes a few minutes to make!

I also made a Ninja treat pail, which was even easier. I used a magnet from the other craft to secure him to the pail. That’s it. Crazy, crazy simple, right? All that’s left to do is fill it with some treats! If you make the Cupcake, the little bendy Ninja makes for cute filler.
