Diet Coke drinkers of the world- this one’s for you! I’m sure you’ve heard of “Dirty Diet Coke” right?  I decided to make a Dirty Diet Coke Kit with a cute little stripey painted box for the base.

Dirty Diet Coke Printable Kit www.thirtyhandmadedays.com

Someone I visit from church loooooooves Diet Coke and I thought she might enjoy a kit so I made this with her in mind.  I delivered the kit to her and I’m happy to report — she loved it!

Ok- ready to get started?  Here are the supplies you need:

dirtydietcokesupplies

  • Diet Coke
  • Sugar Free Coconut Syrup
  • Limes
  • Cute mason jar plastic cup (I found mine at Walmart but I know Target & Costco has them too)
  • CD crate from Michael’s
  • Paint
  • Brush/sponge
  • Ruler
  • Twine
  • Frog tape
  • Hole punch
  • Scissors
  • cellophane
  • Diet Coke Kit Printable

That list might look long, but you probably have quite a few of those items on hand.  First up, I painted my cd crate.  I purchased it at Michael’s and used a 40% off coupon so it was only a few dollars.  I painted it a base coat of white. I then painted over it with this fun aqua/teal/turquoise color and let it dry.  I was excited to take the tape off to see if worked.  And voila- amazingly crisp lines!  So there you have a fun, basic crate for the Dirty Diet Coke Kit.  This could obviously be used for annnnnything… but I thought it was a fun pop of color for this gift.
(animated GIF below- it loops, so watch through the pictures to see the painted box)

Next I printed off the Dirty Diet Coke printable:

Dirty Diet Coke Printable www.thirtyhandmadedays.comI cut out along the lines and folded where it needed to be folded.  If you have a 1 1/2 inch circle punch, that hole on the “Make your own Dirty Diet Coke” fits perfectly.  If not, just use your scissors.  I compiled everything into the crate like so: Dirty Diet Coke Kit www.thirtyhandmadedays.comI mean- it’s cuter with a printable, right? Isn’t everything?

Wrap it up in some cellophane and attach the tag with twine, ribbon or whatever you have on hand:

    I’m a DC addict! I’m not a fan of coconut but raspberry is DELISH! I think the term “dirty diet coke” is a western thing because I only ever read it on blogs from UT or ID. In FL we just call it a raspberry DC. Ha! This is SUCH a cute gift idea!!

      Thanks so much for the feature Cheryl! I bet you could do Diet Pepsi and it’d give it the same little kick. My vices are Dr. Pepper and Cherry Coke- I bet it’d be yum with those too (sadly I gave up soda months ago— so I’ll just live through everyone else ;). xoxo

    What a fun groups of gals for a blog hop- love it! I’ve been hearing about dirty coke forever and didnt know what it was all about- but dang girl- that sounds SO GOOD!!! I’m going to have to try this and give some Dirty Coke gifts!

      Thanks so much Courtney! Love the fun girls that are in this blog hop. Aren’t all the ideas fabulous? Love them!! Try out the DC and bust out some kits as gifts. Let me know what you think. xo

    Yum! A coconut diet coke? That sounds delish…or perhaps make it really dirty with rum ;) for after hours of course!

    • Avatar for MiqueMique says

      July 14, 2013 at 11:32 am

      I realized after I posted this that it probably wouldn’t be considered “dirty” for reals by most people’s standards. Ha! (we don’t drink alcohol so adding coconut and lime to a DC is as crazy as it gets around here ;). You’ll have to let me know what you think!

    Such a cute gift idea! I just picked up some of those adorable mason tumblers at Costco. 3 pack for $14.99 and they come with extra straws.

      July 14, 2013 at 11:30 am

      I keep hearing about the Costco mason tumblers. I need to get over there!! I avoid it so much because of the craziness and insane lines. But this might be the reason I head over. Thanks for the comment Kelly!
