If you’re throwing a mermaid party, here’s an easy party bag idea that your guests will love!
These gorgeous iridescent mermaid party bags only take a couple of minutes to make and we’ve included free printables to help you keep the cost down. Read on to find out what to do!
What you need
- Iridescent paper party bags
- Iridescent gift wrap
- Free printable shell gift tags
- Free printable mermaid tails
- Ribbon
- Scissors
- Glue (Pritt stick)
- Cello tape
What to do
Start by downloading our free printable mermaid tails (the same ones we used for our mermaid cupcake toppers) and print them out.
Before you cut them out, cover each tail in glue using a Pritt stick.
Next, cut out an A4 sized piece of iridescent gift wrap and stick it on top. Don’t worry about it being too neat!
Leave it a minute then cut out each tail (make as many as you need for one for each party bag).
Attach a tail to each iridescent party bag with a piece of cello tape. Make sure the iridescent side is at the front and that you put the cello tape on the inside of the bag so that it’s not visible.
Once you’ve attached a tail to each bag, print out our free printable shell gift tags and cut them out.
Punch a hole in the corner of each one and attach them to the party bags with a piece of ribbon.
And voilà!! Your homemade mermaid party bags are finished and ready to fill with treats!
