Do you ever want to give a little homemade gift to a friend, neighbor, teen, grandmother …… ? You don’t have time to bake a batch of cookies or make a stack of hand stamped cards but you want to make something quick & easy. These easy treat boxes made with 4 x 6″ paper are the perfect thing to make. All you need to put inside are a few pieces of candy or a couple of (thin) tea bags. Or, if you are giving a gift of a jewelry, you can use these instead of the store given box.
As the title indicates, all you need is a 4 x 6″ piece of patterned paper, scorer, a Nested Label topper, bow, velcro or magnet, and some multipurpose liquid glue. Watch the video to see how easy it really it.
Was I right? This is a very easy box to make. If you don’t happen to have the Nested Labels Dies, you can use a 1-3/4″ x 3″ pice of card stock. Leave it as a rectangle or shape it with scissors, trimmer or round with a punch or die.
