I wanted a little thank you gift for someone and one of the easiest things to make is a Clear Tiny Treat Box filled with candy! Chocolate of course! This is one of the things that I LOVE to make since years ago when I saw the idea. That is, covering candy nuggets with a 1″ x 3″ strip of designer paper (being careful not to get adhesive on the actual candy, only the paper!). We used to put them in tins that had to be specially ordered, but now we have the Clear Tiny Treat Boxes that work!

The Clear Tiny Treat Boxes come sixteen to a package and come flat, so storage is no problem. They come wrapped in some plastic to protect from scratches. Just open and crease all the flaps, then assemble and decorate! These boxes are food safe and acid free. They are sized 2″ x 2″ x 2″. Perfect for a candy treat or small gift.

The fun way to decorate candy pieces like these chocolate nuggets is to cut a strip of designer paper (or stamped or decorated cardstock, but designer paper is easiest) that is 1″ x 3″. Just wrap around the candy and apply adhesive to the overlap. I like to use the Multipurpose Liquid Glue, carefully. Keep any adhesive off the candy.

To decorate this Tiny Treat Box, I wrapped a piece of Pressed Petals Specialty Designer Series Paper around the box. Make it as narrow or wide as you want, but you won’t need the full 12″ strip. Start by just wrapping around, creasing on the corners, then cut off the excess and adhere. Depending on your design, if you are putting something on the front of the box like this box, start the end on the front of the box and that junction will be covered by the flower. Otherwise, put the ends on the back of the box.

To decorate the front of the box I made a washi tape flower as I described in THIS POST. The new Pressed Petals Specialty Washi Tape comes with a roll of individual flower petals that you can peel and stick however you like or make a flower like this one! I added a few small rhinestones to the flower center. You can add one of the Perennial Essence Flower Centers if you have them.

The ribbon wrapped around the box is the Gold 3/8″ Metallic-Edge Ribbon, one of my favorites because it is so versatile. The little greeting is stamped with the Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp Set on Very Vanilla and partially layered over a piece of Merry Merlot Cardstock. You can use the Tailored Tag Punch to punch the flagged ends. Just adhere with Mini Glue Dots.

This is a fun and easy thank you gift to personalize for someone! Put the Clear Tiny Treat Boxes on your next order and keep them on hand for when you need to give a little gift like this Clear Tiny Treat Box with Pressed Petals.
