I love to spoil my customers

There is nothing better than getting an unexpected surprise! That’s why I love to send a little something extra when I mail out the packages for my monthly workshops. I want my customers to know I appreciate them and value their trust. It’s fun for me too – I love to figure out unique ways to share a little trreat.

Quick and Easy

This month, I picked up some Werthers carmel filled hard candies (one of my favorites – you can purchase them here). I didn’t just want to throw them in the workshop package – where’s the creativitiy in that? So i decided to design a box to put them in. The only problem was, I needed something quick and easy since I had to make alot and needed them done soon! I thought some type of box would be quick so I began making some samples.

Trial and Error

Whenever you are designing something you never get it on the first try! Even though I measured the candy to figure out how long, wide, and deep my box needed to be, I somehow managed to get it wrong a few times! At last I had the box measurements corrct and knew how to assemble it. Now to make the top. I decided to do a slide top box and used the Country Gingham Designer Series Paper to make the top. They really went together so easily as you can see in my YouTube video

All you need is a piece of cardstock cut to 4 1/2″ x 2 1/2″ (I used Thick Basic White) and a piece of Designer Series Paper cut to 4 1/2″ x 3″. The scoring measurments are given in the video.
