Ted learns how to box!

Or at least make boxes. ;)

I've been on a box-making kick and it's been a lot of fun building up my "box" arsenal (translated: binder with a section dedicated to projects).

I first discovered how to make this really cute Ghirardelli box... (here's the tutorial)

I thought it would be great to make these for some of my fellow teachers and other school staff members. Oh, and these would make GREAT party favors:

With the yummies inside (it holds three Ghirardelli squares):

 I also found how to make a mini pizza box:

And this is a GREAT little box that can hold many things. :)

I learned that a friend (Kathleen) likes milk chocolate, so I plan on filling it with Hershey kisses. :)

I used a small circle punch to make a little notch to open it more easily:

 Here's a shot of the box partly open...

And all the way open...

 Here's another version... I'm happy with the color combination...

Thanks for looking!  :)

(Too many different supplies to list!)  ;)
