2011 DIY Valentine’s Day Brownie Bags
January 19th, 2011
*UPDATE: Download the latest version of the bag here. Enjoy and happy early Valentine’s Day to all!
Out of all the posts featured here on T&T, my Valentine Treat Bags have been by far the most popular. I know that many of you have been awaiting the updated 2011 version so without further ado, here they are!
Instructions are included in the PDF and if you need bags, I sell them in my Etsy shop. The bags are available in Craft and White along with the the Glassine Liner Bags to help maintain freshness for perishables and protect the paper from oil stains.
Just download the file and print directly onto the paper bag using a color ink jet printer. For more detailed instructions and other printing suggestions visit my previous post here. Once you’ve made the bags, fill with heart shaped brownies cut with a cookie cutter. Have fun!

Beautiful!! I made the order of the bags and immediately downloaded the download version of the euro!
Thank you!

Simply perfect. Love the idea and new version for 2011. Can’t wait for Valentine’s day!

I was wondering where you buy those glass milk bottles? I’d love to order them in bulk, but I can’t seem to find anybody who sells non-antique versions for a reasonable price. Help a girl out? Thanks!

Such a classic look- I’d be tickled to receive a Valentine’s brownie in that bag!

These are so cute + clever! The heart-shaped brownies just add to my delight. I was already thinking of what treat I can send in with my daughter for her school party, and these might just be it!

Thank you for sharing! I guess I’ll have to bake up something wonderful to put in these cute bags.
January 20th, 2011 at 7:14 pm
YAH!!!! I’ve been waiting for this! Thanks so much
I took these little treats in to my daughter’s school last year for the secretary’s, principal, special area teachers (art, music, etc.) and classroom teachers with a special brownie recipe from a friend, and they LOVED them!!! Who doesn’t love darling packaging and brownies!?

HELP!!
) I am unable to download the USA version…when I click on the link it sends me to a blank grey screen…any ideas? Thanks!
January 22nd, 2011 at 6:43 am
Thank you, thank you!!! I made these last year and loved them. I was lamenting the fact that there weren’t any bags for 2011 and was hoping that you might have one for 2011. I am SO excited. Thank you!!!

Hi Jen,
If you have issues downloading the file, try right clicking on the link and saving the file directly to your computer. If that still doesn’t work let me know and I can email that to you directly. Have fun!!!

Hi Jillian,
I actually found these at my local grocery store. They were on the more expensive side though – about $3.50 each. They come in chocolate milk too which was equally as adorable! I saw these mini creamer jars at Crate & Barrel and thought they might be a good cheaper alternative. Good luck and happy Valentines Day!

Hi
Is there any way you could describe how you made the .pdf? I’d love to make these for my daughter’s preschool class, but I’d like the bags to be personalize-able….

Perfectly Lovely!
I featured them today on my fab finds!

I can download the file just fine and even see it in Adobe, but I cannot print it from Adobe in the correct size nor import it into one of my graphics programs from which I have printed in past years (PSE or Serif PagePlus); I am told that it is an invalid pdf format. PSE is requiring a “permission password” — something I have never set. Any ideas how I might get to use your wonderful file this year?
February 9th, 2011 at 8:49 pm
HELP! Where do I get the straws??
February 10th, 2011 at 3:13 pm
I love this! I printed them out on white paper and cut them out, then glued to a lunch bag. I known for my homemade brownies. Make them twice a week! So I’ll me making gift bags for my family.
Cheers!

Will you be making a 2012 version? I just found this on Pinterest and would love to make some for the teachers I work with.

I love your style! Would you mind changing the date to 2012?
This is such a sweet and simple gift!

Love your printable! Will you update for 2012 and is there way to change or delete the “chocolate brownie” part, so it I can fill it with candy?
January 11th, 2012 at 7:14 am
