Here are two fun and easy Halloween Triangle Treat Boxes. I have to admit, I didn’t put too much thought into them, just using up some scraps I had around, but I think they still turned out kind of cute! A couple of trick-or-treaters on Halloween night might get a kick out of them!
I always like making these triangle treat boxes for many different occasions! They are easy and can be made almost any size you need. Just decorate, put treats or a small gift inside and tie with a ribbon at the top. I have made lots of them! Here is a similar Halloween one made with a skeleton and designer series paper.
Both of these triangle treat boxes are made with Granny Apple Green cardstock. Each piece is cut at 4″ x 8″. Then it is scored at 4″ in the middle of the 8″ length. Measure the midpoint at each end, which would be at 2″. Put a light pencil mark at each end. Then score diagonally from the 2″ point to the middle of the strip at 4″ Do this four times, two sides on each end.
Here is a diagram:
This is how you score on a diagonal using the Paper Trimmer:
After you get the box all scored, crease on all the score lines and see how it will come together. Punch holes in the two flaps on each side so you can put a ribbon through after you add the treat inside. I used my old Crop-a- Dile but you can use any hole punch. Just so you can get the ribbon through.
To decorate my boxes, on the one on the left, I cut out a pumpkin and ghost image I had already stamped from the set Playful Ghosts. After adhering that, I added a few diecut “bubbles” from the Potions & Spells Dies, plus a greeting on the sticker sheet in the Halloween Memories Scrapbooking Workshop Kit online.
For the box on the right, I added a piece of designer paper to the top from the Halloween Spells Designer Series Paper first. I had an extra stamped gray cat from the Potions & Spells Stamp Set which was diecut with the dies of the same name. I added some bubbles to this box also and a greeting that was already stamped from the stamp set. Sometimes it is handy having those scraps around and it’s great to use them up!
Both boxes are tied with some Pretty Peacock retired ribbon that just happened to be nearby. You could chose something that matched better than this one, but wonky is okay for Halloween!
Keep these triangle treat boxes in mind because they are fun and easy to make and don’t usually take much time. They can be dressed up for any occasion!
