I am pretty awful at pulling together a themed party. I always start with great intentions but then the little details fall off my radar and by the time the party rolls around I’ve given up. When James asked for a Minecraft party and I knew I had to at least try – again. I felt like the cake turned out well so then we moved on to create the Minecraft Party Favors: TNT Boxes.
James had his birthday party at the bowling alley so I didn’t worry about making everything really over the top. Not stressing over the small stuff helped. It was a great party and that’s what counts.
I wanted to share the Minecraft Party Favors for other moms who want to be crafty but can only handle the simple stuff.
Minecraft Party Favors: TNT Boxes
You’ll Need:
- Favor Boxes (2 x 2 x 2) – I bought these in white at Michael’s.
- Red Washi Tape
- Printable TNT labels
- Twizzlers – probably 2 big bags (or another red ‘stick’ candy)
- Kitchen Shears or a knife
Directions:
- Put the boxes together as directed.
- Print these TNT labels and cut them to fit, leaving a little white space at the top and bottom.
- Cut pieces of washi tape.
- Tape down the TNT labels.
- Now you are ready to fill your boxes. Snip the ends off the Twizzlers and then quarter what’s left.
- Fill each box with about 30 Twizzler pieces.
- Share with your friends!!
**Note: I only put the TNT labels on the top and one side of the box, but you could add the labels to two or all sides of the boxes. Feel free to play with it and make them your own!
I was happy not to send ‘stuff’ home with our party guests, but the TNT Boxes were a huge hit!! I got compliments from random strangers walking by our table, too, which helped boost my ego a bit.
Don’t forget the Minecraft Cake!!
LOVE this! I will be making these for Gabe and Cadence’s party this month. I’m going to see what other fun Minecraft posts you’ve shared.
I love it. I am having my boys joint birthday party in August and they already told me that they wanted a Minecraft party!
Oh my gosh, Sara. These are so cute. All three of my children love Minecraft so obviously they would love these.
These are so cute! You did a great job with them, I can see why they were a big hit.
Yes they do! Those are cute. (I am one of those women who want to be crafty but need some help in doing so.) Thanks for the DIY tutorial. 🙂
Those are seriously adorable! They look just like TNT boxes! Any Minecraft lover would LOVE them!
Well I would say that you were pretty darn good at throwing this themed party! Everything is absolutely perfect!
Anything Minecraft themed is bound to be a hit with the kids. Those TNT blocks are way too cute.
These are really cute. I’m sure many boys would love this! Minecraft doesn’t look like it’s going to lose it’s popularity any time soon.
These look amazing and for the record I think your very crafty and creative!
Aww, thank you! I try, but it doesn’t always work out how I’d planned! 😉
How cute are those! We’ve been to a Minecraft party or two and the kids just go crazy for it.
