Ice Cream Party Favors

Warning: may cause squeals : )

Designed these little “ice cream” box to slides open with a pom-pom pull, how fun yes?! Then inside, is hidden chalk + bubbles as a sweet DIY party favor (or last-day-of-school surprise).

What To MAKE one, two or more?!

Start by finding the center of your box. Then using a piece of card stock paper (or  ruler) draw diagonal lines going up to the left and right to create the shape of your cone.

Inside those lines, use your paintbrush to create the ice cream scoop. Lightly press down to make three rounded bumps across the top—these will be the drips!

Next, paint two curved arches at the very top of the scoop and fill in the whole scoop shape with your favorite “flavor” color.

Using the clean and dirty cup in between colors, paint slightly curved lines across the scoop—these will be your sprinkles!

Detach the extra pieces from your CHEEKS craft mat (including the paint palette) so you have a clean and bit more open space for glue gunning.

Using glitter gold glue gun sticks, draw diagonal lines down the cone. You can also use a regular glue gun and add glitter (MAKING TIP: Spray mod podge on top so the glitter doesn’t come off once dry)

Finish it off by hot-gluing a pom-pom to the top as your cherry. You can even cut a small arched strip for the cherry stem and glue that on too.

Now you're ready to fill your ice cream cone with fun treats like chalk, bubbles, or mini sunglasses—perfect for summer parties or end-of-school gifts!
