It’s cookie season as you know, and we are getting ready for a lot of cookie sale opportunities!   With all of our booth ideas running through our heads we are also getting ready for Walk About Week.  For those that don’t know that is when we go door to door as a troop.  First thing I made for the girls is a lanyard to make it easier and faster when some one asks what kind and how much.

Here is a short tutorial on how I made ours….

5 yards of thick cos grain ribbon made 18 lanyards, it could make more or less depending on how long you make yours.

I had gotten a bag of these at a yard sale for a dollar I like using these for the lanyard clip than the two-part way you see a lot online.  Lace this through the ribbon first.

Then sew the ribbon together.  I sewed it three times across because the girls will pull on them I am sure.

I printed out the cookie variety and the price cheat sheet and stuck them to a green paper to match the ribbon.

Once I cut them out I laminated them and cut the out again with my helper…

Punched a hole with the handy dandy crop-o-dile ( oh my she was little back then)

  1. I appreciate your hard work in creating this info-any suggestions on printing the 2017 cookie line-up pic without it being too blurry? To describe it’s like maybe the colors are fading with the background behind each wording (makes it hard to read when print). Already attempted to print on “best quality” Thank you.

      1. i’m sure you are very busy, but just wanted to see if you were able to put in pdf? if not, no worries 🙂 thank you so much! have a blessed day!

  2. Can you send me the file of the 2017 line up so that I can read the descriptions of the cookies? This is our first year selling and your tips and tricks are soooo awesome!

  3. Could you post 2017-cookie list as a PDF? It’s a word file now and I can’t edit. Our cookies are $5 and $6 and your graphic is amazing. I would love to use it if possible for our juniors but would need to change the price. Thank you! This is super amazing
