Lego Juice Box Bricks

Hello...yes. I am still alive. Barely. I think I might be coming down with something. Let's hope I can sleep it off before Saturday and still get my son's Lego party ready at the same time! Crossing my fingers...



In the mean time I have finished the juice box bricks for his party. Not a huge feat but it's something right?

I got the idea from Design Dump - click here for the link. She has a lot of great ideas I am going to use. My party plan is admittedly less classy though, and a lot more colorful - like I hope it doesn't turn tacky colorful - crossing my toes now. :)
 
I wanted my lego "bumps" to look a bit more real so I played around with Word and came up with this:
Very simple...Easy...but adds a nice touch.



Just print, cut and wrap it. Now if only the rest of the party details were this easy...



Just in case someone else wants my template...click here to it download for free!

***Thank you everyone for helping me figure out the Word to pdf document conversion.You guys are the best!

It should fit most juice box sizes. I used the tallish/slim Hi-C fruit punch boxes.

There is more Lego fun to come!

I hope you are having a great week!

Very cute! Try box.net i use it all the time. In fact, I just posted some valentine printables on my blog using that site. I have been so happy with it. I just save the file as a jpg and upload it.

i have to admit, i squealed with delight when i saw you were working on a lego party. my little dude is turning 7 (OMG!) & is currently fascinated with lego's & i have been toying with the idea of doing a lego party. Only problem is most of our family/friends are younger :/ Still can't wait to see what you come up with! :)

my son is having a lego party in march so i am super pumped to see what you come up with... i am creatively challenged!!

These turned out super cute! I bet Owen will be so excited!!

You can creat PDFs through word if you have the conversion tool which you can download for free. So then I just insert my image onto a word page and then convert it to a pdf. It also gives you the option of making a pdf especially for the web.

That was long. Anywho if you don't have the pdf option in your word let me know and I can dig up the link to help you install it.

LOL! I really thought they were legos in the first picture. I love this idea!

I use CutePDF to create PDFs, you can download it free at ninite(dot) com.

It adds a printer so when you have your JPEG or Word document or whatever, you go to "File" "Print" and choose "CutePDF Writer" as your printer and Tada! It creates a PDF.

Very easy. There are paid versions if you want to do more, but for creating simple PDF documents it is pretty good.

Thanks for all your lego ideas. I have been looking around and all the parties I've seen are for older kids. This was PERFECT for my son and his upcoming ideas. Thanks for doing all the leg work.

I'm making these and I'm actually putting the circles on using Zots glue dots so they are 3D and look super realistic!

Thanks so much for sharing. I will be using some of your creations for my little guy's lego party later this month. :D

MissMary said...

Thank you EVER so much for all this info! My son wants a Lego party and though I'm using some ideas (Lego Build-Off) of my own but I was a bit baffled on anything else the kids could do with actual Legos! Thank you so so so much for a couple really great ideas and the Juice Box template!

ScrappinMaMa said...

Thank you so much for providing the template for the juice boxes! I've been planning a lego party for my soon to be 6 year old and this is one of the last touches I needed. I didn't have time to make the template my self so I started searching online and came across your blog. I hope your party was great! thanks again!
