Make this Monster Bash Halloween Clear Tiny Treat Box so quickly and easily for all your Halloween ghosts and goblins! It’s practically October and you know that means it’s time to think about fun Halloween treat packaging!
This treat might be something more for family, friends, co-workers or other people, more than random trick-or-treaters since you will be using the Clear Tiny Treat Boxes. I always keep a package of these on hand for small treats or gifts. They are so easy to use and so versatile, not to mention they store flat. Just take off the bit of plastic wrap on them that protects the surface and crease the scored lines to form the treat box.
For this Halloween treat, I simply wrapped a strip, about 1 3/4″ wide, of the Monster Bash Designer Series Paper around the box. It will be longer than you need but just wrap around the box, creasing fairly lightly at each corner. Then take the paper off, trim the end to overlap the front edge just a little bit (since the decoration is going to hide where the paper overlaps) and use a Bone Folder to crease those score lines you created, keeping them straight along the edge of the strip of paper. Now put the paper back around the box and use a little adhesive to join the overlapping ends.
For this box, I wanted to just keep it super simple. I just cut out one of the Halloween character images from the Monster Bash paper with my Paper Snips and adhered him to the front of the box with two Stampin’ Dimensionals. I could have die cut a layer, maybe one of the Ornate Frames, to mount him on, but I was making it quick and easy!
After putting my candy inside (you could add some paper shred if you didn’t want so much room for candy!), I tied a Basic Black Satin Ribbon around the top to make sure the lid stays closed. The recipient can easily untie the bow to get to the candy!
Here’s another example in this post of a Halloween treat box from last year using the Clear Tiny Treat Box.
Another option would be to wrap the designer paper around the box across the top and decorate the top of the box, then wrap the ribbon around the sides of the box. Or just put some decoration on top of the box.
These would be cute party favors at a Halloween party and easy to make! The boxes are clear acetate and food safe so you don’t have to worry! And with the cute Monster Bash Designer Series Paper, you have no limit on decorating options for your treats! Try the Monster Bash Halloween Clear Tiny Treat Box for some Halloween fun!
