DIY Snack Backpack

Snack backpack was a trend that started in Korea and then caught the attention of the Japanese school girls. 
I don't know if this is still popular or trending because I always find things out when it's not cool anymore.
Oh well, but it doesn't bother me because in my family I always get the hand-me-down items. So everything is cool to me regardless. 

Tools you'll need:
- Lots of sticky tape
- Scissor
- Lots of snacks (chips, Pocky, lollies etc)

 When you have brought all of the above, now we can start making the backpack.

Instructions:

  1. Start with the base/bottom of the bag. I chose a hard plastic box for the base because it will hold the 4 sides in place.
    Stick the sticky tape on each sides of the box

  2. Place each chip on the sticky tape of each side to make 4 walls (or the snack item you'll be using to make the sides on your bag)

  3. Sticky tape the top and sides of the bag

  4. Once the 4 walls is stable, now you can create the cover/flap on your bag (optional, if you don't want a cover)

  5. Next put aside the bag and start making the straps. I would recommend using something long and soft like muesli bars or roll ups because it's easier if it's flexible. In my video, I used Kinder Surprise small blocks and when sticky taping it, I put a space in between each block.
    Once done, you can create the second strap. If you want to create a messenger style bag, just create one long strap.

  6. When you've finished the strap, attach it onto the bag

Now you've completed and created you're own snack backpack!

I think this will be great for kids during Halloween. Hope you enjoy making your own snack backpack! 
If you do make one, I'll love to see it.
