DIY Donut Garland

Hello, friends!

Excited to share two fun Donut inspired tutorials with you today!

Our printable Donut Garland – A lot of people have been messaging me to ask which craft punch (size and brand) I use. I am sharing the information with you today!
I am also showing how you can make super Mini “Donuts” using toasted cereal. So cute!

The image below I am showcasing both! Aren’t they cute? They made the perfect props for our Donut Invitation design!

Now, let me show you how I made these cute mini cereal donuts! Note: It requires a lot of patience! It can be a relaxing project for when the little ones go to bed or a project to do with the kids.

I know there’s a donut cereal box available at the supermarket, but they are not pink. I needed girly pink with valentine’s day sprinkles *wink *wink

MINI (CEREAL) DONUTS

Here’s what you will need:

Toasted cereal
Store bought frosting (flavor of your choice!) I used strawberry flavor!
Super mini nonpareils and super mini heart sprinkles * Mine are from The Bakers Party Shop. Stop by to check their amazing selection here!

Directions:

All you have to do is dip each mini cereal in frosting. Sometimes it covers the hole. I used a toothpick to fix that. Easy peasy!

To add the sprinkles, the easiest way to do it is by placing some sprinkles on a plate and dip them one by one (I know, too much time! You will love how cute they will though!) I tried to just sprinkle over the cereal to save myself some time but they wouldn’t stick. Maybe because I live in a such dry city.

You might be wondering how many I decorated. I only did a few really! My little boy loved helping me and my 2 year-old loved eating them!
