From Carpool to Care Packages • Hunger-Aid Survival Kits

63 · Jan 29, 2018 · Leave a Comment

This post has been sponsored by Nature Valley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

With four kiddos that range in age from 7 to 20, I’ve been running carpool FOREVER it seems. One thing that never changes, no matter the age of the child, they ALWAYS arrive hungry! Even when they are far away in college, they are constantly fighting those hangries. I have found that from carpool to care packages, my go to products are always Nature Valley. Whenever I am at  Walmart, I always stock-up on our favorite hunger fighting snacks to add to our Hunger-Aid Carpool Snack Bin or, to include in a Hunger-Aid College Survival Box.Having four kiddos; One in College, High School, Middle & Elementary, school pick-up is a long drawn out process.

I remember the first time I had a Nature Valley Granola Bar when I was a kid. It was at Girl Scout Camp and I remember biting into this crunchy granola bar and loving the flavor and especially the crunch. For years, it was my go to granola treat when I was in the mood for crunch time. I felt like I was getting an extra special treat because they always had TWO bars in each package. That’s a big deal when you’re young or even when you’re a poor college student. Over the years, I’ve watched their brand grow to include many more snacking options that, as a Mom, I love sharing with my kiddos.

Taking Care of the HANGRIES • The Hunger-Aid Carpool Snack Bin

Having four kiddos; one in college, high school, middle & elementary, school pick-up is a long drawn out process. Keeping the car stocked with Nature Valley  products, as well as extra school supplies “just in case,” is fabulous way to let your children know that you truly care about their success.

I’m loving the NEW Nature Valley Layered Granola Nut Bars & Soft-Baked Filled Squares. They are perfect for either, before school on one of those hectic mornings or after to take care of those hungry tummies. They are so scrumptious and the carpool kiddos love them. I’ve created a Hunger-Aid Carpool Snack Bin that I keep in my car so that my children are never left with a case of the hangries before or after school.

I created this fun design for the bin based off of the vintage Band-Aid tins that our mothers, grandmothers or even great grand mothers always had around when we needed a little tender loving care after getting into a scrape. I thought it was perfect for the snack bin for the car. You’ll be able to download the file for yourself below.

Shopping List for the Carpool Snack Bin

I’m always running to Walmart to grab all kinds of things because it’s a one stop shop packed with all the things I need – especially for this snack bin. This is what I put together for the carpool snack bin to keep in the car.

To start, I grabbed one of my favorite clear buckets at Walmart. I use these for all kinds of stuff. Storage for little bits and bobs, a travel container when taking meals to friends homes, pantry storage… The list goes on and on.

For this purpose, I grabbed some vinyl decal materials and created a cute label for the bin because, you know, that’s how I am.

UPDATED POST with new updated label originally posted December 1, 2015

Madly looking for gift tags for your friends and neighbors? These stylish gift tags are perfect to print on label paper and stick on really any cute container and make them look fabulous!

 One of my favorite things to do is creating fun new little ways to show your friends and neighbors how much they mean to you during the holidays. It doesn’t need to cost a lot, nor does it have to take a whole lot of time & effort.

I went to Michaels and found some fun mugs and cute cups to create some easy, fun gifts. Then I created some stylish tags to add to the mugs and cups.

 I’m cutting these out with just a simple pair of scissors, no cutting machine required.

 Now, I know that a lot of people love their sweets when it comes to Christmas, but not everyone appreciates ALL of those sweets.   I thought I would come up with a non-sweet gift that will still be a fun gift to receive.

 Everyone’s in love with the Buffalo Check this year and Michaels is right on trend with these fun cups. They even have some awesome Buffalo Check socks in the dollar section… PERFECT! I placed some matching socks into the cute cups and added the “Merry Cozy Christmas” Label on the front of the cup… 1st gift finished! Can’t get any easier than that!

 Next up, the classic hot cocoa mug with a cute little twist.

 I filled a large cone shaped cellophane bag with some hot chocolate mix and tied it with some buffalo check ribbon. I put it into a large buffalo check mug and then I added a cool battery powered set of star lights to the mug to add a little whimsical element. I love how it turned out…  2nd gift complete!

Last but not least I found another mug at Michaels that’s a great plaid mug. I noticed some Lindor Truffles up at the front of the store that matched the plaid pattern on the mug. I thought it would be a PERFECT pairing with the plaid mug.

With the craziness of the Holidays, who couldn’t use a spa inspired holiday survival kit?

With that thought in mind, I thought it would be fun to put together this Holiday season to give to my friends, neighbors, teachers… Basically, anyone who could use a little pick-me-up as well.Create this fun and stylish spa inspired Holiday Survival Kit full of spa goodies in Buffalo Check Ball Jars, a Yankee Candle and the cutest little Ball match jar + free printable tags for each item in the kit created by WhipperBerry

Sharing Jars

I love the mission of the Ball® Sharing Jar. When you purchase the Sharing Jars your purchase will benefit Feeding America® – the nation’s largest domestic hunger-relief organization. For every package of Sharing Jars purchased, Newell Brands will donate 4 meals*! I LOVE it when I can help support a worthy cause when buying stuff I would normally buy any way.

*Newell Brands® will donate $0.36 per package of Sharing Jars sold, up to $150,000 provided to Feeding America®.  $1 helps provide 11 meals secured by Feeding America® on behalf of local member food banks.

Sugar Scrub Recipe

Before you can start assembling your Holiday Survival Kit, you’ll need to mix-up some simple sugar scrub. This couldn’t be any easier. You can mix this by hand or with a mixer. Either way is totally fine. Here’s what you’ll need.

  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil
  • 10 drops of peppermint essential oil

Add sugar to your mixing bowl and slowly add your coconut oil until you get the desired consistency. I don’t like to add any food coloring because I don’t like to add extra chemicals and keep things natural. Plus, you don’t want to accidentally spill on something and have the color transfer.

Finish up by adding the essential oils and package in your Ball® Sharing Jar.

Shower Bomb Recipe

The shower bombs take a little more patience. These little guys are very similar to the Snowball Bath Bombs I made the other day. They are made with baking soda and you want to make sure you don’t activate it while you are in the process of mixing up your shower bombs.

  • 1 cup baking soda
  • 1/2 cup citric acid
  • 1/2 cup corn starch
  • 2-3 tablespoons water
  • 3o drops peppermint essential oil

In the bowl of a stand mixer, add baking soda, citric acid and corn starch. Put water and essential oil into a small spray bottle and slowly spray dry mixture while mixing on low. Continue adding water/oil mixture until you achieve a nice wet sand consistency. DO NOT rush this process.

Add mixture to a silicon mold like the one below and press firmly.

Let mixture sit in mold for 4-5 minutes and then carefully unfold. Let the shower bombs sit on a flat surface overnight to dry.

Fill the other sharing jar with the shower bombs and attach printable tag to jar.

How to Paint Buffalo Check Jars

Ball® Sharing Jars

This project looks a bit challenging, but truly it’s not! All you need are some of those fabulous Ball® Sharing Jars and some paint and you can create this trendy look for yourself.

I love the shape of the Sharing Jars and I love the mission. When you purchase the Sharing Jars your purchase will benefit Feeding America® – the nation’s largest domestic hunger-relief organization.

Buffalo Check Jars

I’m a huge fan of the Buffalo Check trend and can’t get enough of it right now. Pretty much everyone I know feels the same way so, I thought a stylish Buffalo Check Jar would be the perfect gift for friends and family for Christmas this year. I’ve filled them with all kinds of stuff; candy, bath scrubs, shower bombs, soup starters, cookie kits, all kinds of stuff. Of course after the jars are painted, you can no longer preserve in them but, they’re great for everything else. Here’s how to make them.

Materials

  • Ball® Sharing Jars
  • Americana Decor Chalky Paint in Everlasting, Yesteryear & Carbon
  • sponge paint brush
  • 1/4″ flat head paint brush
  • 240 grit sandpaper
  • Americana Decor Clear Crème Wax
  • lint free cloth

Instructions

To begin, make sure you have washed and dried your jars. Then paint a couple of layers of the white (Everlasting) chalky paint onto the jar with the sponge brush. You can use your favorite kind of chalk paint here.

Don’t worry about brush strokes, they will get smoothed out in the finishing process at the end. Let dry, ideally for a few hours or overnight.

Next, you’ll use the 1/4″ flat paint brush to paint the gray (Yesteryear) stripes onto the jar.

Love the Buffalo Check trend? Yep, me too! I thought it would be fun to use some of the Ball® Giving Jars to create some Buffalo Check Jars to use as gifts this Holiday Season. Here's how you can make some of your own.

You will loosely use the lines on the jars as guides. I really didn’t want a precise looking check wanting it to look more free form or hand painted. I didn’t want this project to become to crazy with measuring every little detail and taping the jar to get perfect lines. This to me makes the project so much more enjoyable and I love the look.

Start at the top points of the lines in the Sharing Jar and use your 1/4 inch brush line to create the stripes. Three stripes around the jar and then a vertical stripe in the center of the flat sections of the sharing jar. Let dry completely.

Now, you’ll use the black (Carbon) paint to paint on the black section of the check in the intersections of the gray stripes. Again, let paint dry completely. It would be best at this stage to let the paint cure overnight. It will help the paint adhere to the glass much better.

Once the paint is dry, you will use the sand paper to smooth and distress the paint. Be careful not to attach the jar with a little too much vigor. You don’t want to sand the paint right off the jar. Using a soft hand, smooth the dry paint, (this will remove the brush strokes) and then carefully distress the high points of the jar.

Once this step is complete, you’ll want to wipe down the jars with a damp cloth to remove any of the remaining dust. Then you’ll use your lint free cloth to wipe on some of the wax to seal the paint onto the jar. Use the lint free cloth to then wipe off any excess wax and buff the wax.

Now, you’re finished! You have the cutest Buffalo Check Jars ready to fill with whatever you like.
