Here's a shot of all the supplies you'll need to do this web-exclusive project.
|
Materials: Orange card stock (8-1/2" x 11")
Small hole punch, or 1/4" rectangle punch
Black curling ribbon
Play paper money
Candy kisses
Halloween stickers
Scissors - Use a die cut machine to cut out the card stock into the take out carton shape. (You can do this at a scrapbooking store that has Ellison die cut equipment, or you can do it by hand by drawing the shape on the paper.)
- Fold the little carton following the scored lines on the cut out. Fold the corners around to meet on the outside of the box along the wide side. Crease them firmly.
- Punch a hole vertically in each of the four corners.
- Cut an 18" piece of curling ribbon. Run it through the 2 sets of holes on one side, pulling a 4" tail through. Tie a double knot. Take the long end of the ribbon over the top to the other side and do the same thing. This ties the little box together. Now take your scissors and use one blade to curl both of the 4" ribbon ends that are hanging.
- Write a note on the back of the play money about the charity you are giving to: "We have given $___ to (name of charity) on your behalf. Here's a little kiss to thank you." Put the play money and the candy kiss into the carton.
- Fold in the top flaps. Fold in and interlock the top.
- Put a sticker on the top.
Other ideas: - Write on the box before you fold it, or use Halloween rubber stamps.
- Use the same kind of box for your Christmas tree or party favors!
