You guys loved the Thanksgiving Snack Mix shared a few years ago so much that I thought we’d share it again for new readers.
We designed a free printable tag to go with this sweet snack mix. My favorite part about this snack mix is the symbolism behind each item included in the mix.
Here’s a tip when printing these off: Use high quality paper! Staples Brand: matte heavy weight photo paper works great!
To make these free printable tags, you need:
– 3 1/2 inch scalloped edge circle punch
– 2 1/2 plain circle punch, circle cutter, circle cutting die, or even scissors
– hole punch
– Fall color card stock in a variety of colors
– cellophane bags (I found these at Xpedx)
– baker’s twine (red, yellow or brown would be great here)
For the Thanksgiving Snack Mix you will need:
• Bugles brand chips (2 bags is plenty)
• classic knot mini pretzels
• candy corn or corn nuts or corn pops (like popcorn)
• dried fruit (like craisins)
• sunflower seeds
ThanksGiving Snack Mix – the symbolism of each item
-Bugles represent the Thanksgiving Cornucopia
-Pretzels represent arms folded in prayer of Thanksgiving
-CandyCorn represent the placing of five kernels of corn beside each Thanksgiving Plate to remember the Winter of 1623 known as the “Starving Time”
-Dried Fruit – a symbol of the Harvest – The reason for Thanksgiving
-Sunflower Seeds – symbolize the potential for a generous harvest next season

Happy month of Giving Thanks!


What a sweet idea! I have several bags of candy corn and I do love Bugles so I plan on whipping some up for me and to share of course! Thank you so much for the printable and the packaging tips.
You bet! /Thanks for saying Thanks! 🙂
I love a good snack and this mix looks superb! So fun!
thanks Maria!!
Thanks! We did it last year for my daughters class and we were just getting all the non-food supplies ready to do it again this year. We were about 10 short of the printouts, and couldn’t reprint it, so I am happy to see a new one. {Though, when I printed it was off center, and I had to not use the 3 on the left side 🙁 Not sure if that’s the fault of my printer or not…}
Hi Lindsey!
You are the first to mention any issues with printing, maybe try it again. If I hear from others who downloaded the file, I will let you know. Thanks for the heads up. I had no problem printing it.
Yum! I’ll be trying this and sharing with friends and family.
These are so cute! Thanks for sharing Kami.
PS I hope your appointment went well!
Oh goodness. This is so cute! I’ve been looking for something to put in my Thanksgiving Gift boxes! This is just the right size, and a great alternative to straight Candy! I’m going to link it in my blog post! http://etsy.me/thankgivingboxesetsy
Making these for my aunt to give at her bridge group. Thank you so much, Kami, for sharing the idea and creating the printables! I love colorful, practical and yummy .. this is perfect.

Thanks for sharing–soooo cute!
This is SO cute! Thank you for sharing!
Where have you been in, like, forever? You have no idea how much I appreciate that you use “line drawings”, and you have ideas that are fresh and do not require the use of a machine. Thank you for sharing your talent. Blessings from Port Huron, Michigan.
