I’m so excited for the 4th of July this year! I love this holiday because it’s a good time for both adults and kids! I wanted to have something fun for my little ones, so I came up with some kid friendly Fourth of July Favors made from recycled TP rolls… easy, inexpensive and safe!
Kid Friendly Fourth of July Favors
I am all about recycling and using what’s around the house and this project fits the bill!
Easy Fourth Of July Party Favors
Supplies:
– Red Burlap (about 1/2 yard for 5 favors)
– Red, White and Blue Ribbons
– TP Rolls
– Hot Glue Gun
– Fourth of July Printable (see below)
– Candy For Filler
Start by cutting your burlap into 15″ X 7 ” pieces. Then gently pull the strings off either side until the edges are straight, and trim.
Place your TP roll directly in the center.
Start to roll the burlap around the TP roll and place hot glue on the edges to secure it.
Tie one end of favor with ribbon, fill with candy and then tie the other side.
You can download the FREE printable here, and then print it off. I used my Silhouette to cut each tag, but you could easily just use scissors!
Place them in a basket and you are good to go! Your guests (of all ages) will love them.I mean who doesn’t like unwrapping a surprise and finding chocolate inside?! :)
I can’t wait for the kiddos to open them and find all of the goodies inside :) And I have a feeling the adults will be taking part too!

You had me at TP rolls, LOL! I have been hoarding toilet paper rolls…have a huge garbage bag full now. Drives my hubby nuts. But I knew that some great projects would come along! Thanks for sharing this one ;)
Yep, I’d be one of the adults opening one of these up! These look so fun, Taryn!
Those are adorable! I love them!! Although I might have to rethink the chocolate, it’s supposed to be 117 this weekend, they may not make it :)
These are SO cute Taryn! Love the red burlap. Hope you have a wonderful July 4th!!
These are so cute! I love how they turned out and the red burlap is such a great touch.
