Supplies

• 5 1/4” x 5 1/2” piece of cardstock or DSP (Designer Series Paper) for box- Stampin’ Up 6 x 6 Paper Stacks are perfect for this!

• 1/2” x 6” piece of cardstock for belly band or 11″ piece of ribbon

• Paper cutter with scoring blade- I like to use the Stampin’ Up! Simply Scored Tool

• Scissors- Paper Snips are my favorite.

• Sticky Strip™ or Tear & Tape Adhesive

• 3 Hershey’s® Miniatures® chocolate bars

• 3- 1 6/16” x 3” pieces of cardstock or DSP to wrap candy bars

  Step 1

  

  5 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ piece of DSP or cardstock. Score across the longer side (Landscape mode) at 1/2″, 2 1/2″, 3″, and 5″.Score across the shorter side (Portrait mode) at 1/2″, 1″, 4 1/4″, and 4 3/4″.  See picture above

  Step 2

  

  Use scissors to remove the top left and top right sections. Corner Round the two top corners. Use a bone folder on all the score lines.  Cut the tabs on the score lines.The box goes together easier if the top and bottom tabs are trimmed on an angle as shown.  Apply adhesive to the center tabs. See picture above.

A few weeks ago, I made a box that held 3 Hershey’s Nuggets.  See the post with directions Here.  Kris commented and asked me to make a new box to hold 3 Hershey’s Miniatures.  She wants to make them for her Thanksgiving guests.  So here’s the new box for the Hershey’s Miniatures Kris.  I’ll post the directions tomorrow.

I love the cute owl standing on top of the box.  This idea came from Kathy Winter.  Thanks Kathy!

Here’s the inside of the box.  Please stop back tomorrow for the directions.  I love to hear from you, so please leave a question or comment.

Blessings,

Welcome to the Pals Blog Hop for October where we are celebrating an early Fall season by sharing Halloween and Autumn projects using our wonderful Stampin’ Up! supplies.  We hope you enjoy our creations!

You may just be starting the blog hop or may have come from Dawn Tidd at Tiddbits from Dawn, number 7 on the Pals Hop.  If you get off track at any time, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all the projects.

Did you know Stampin’ Up! has a gift box for Reese’s Peanut Butter Pumpkins?  My kid’s favorite treat to receive for any holiday is Reese’s Peanut Butter ________!  You know…Hearts, Eggs, Pumpkins, Christmas Trees etc.  Does Reese’s make a Peanut Butter Turkey?  They would like that too.  Anyway, I make these boxes for every holiday that Reese’s and my kids celebrate together 🙂  Here’s a few of my Halloween boxes.

You’re probably wondering about the cute witch hat on the pumpkin in the middle?  That hat was designed by Janet Baker and it is adorable! The box size is 1.75 x 1.75 x 3.25.  You need an 8 x 8 piece of cardstock and Gift Box Punch Board.

You can put either one or two pumpkins in each box.

So which box is your favorite?  The spider, the polka dot pumpkin or the pumpkin with the witch hat?  I’d love to hear your comments or questions.

Yep, my favorite is the pumpkin with the witch hat!  Please click on the pictures at the bottom of this post to order. Please use Host Code P67Y63UQ and you will receive 5 Spider Web Doilies from me for every $50 order.  For a $100 order you’ll receive the 5 Spider Web Doilies and also the punched pieces to make 5 witches hats (assorted colors).  While my supply lasts.  The Spider Web Doilies are on backorder at Stampin’ Up!

Blessings,

Beth 🙂
