Christmas Crates

Let's get to some holiday fun!

These "crates" can be made for any holiday, I also have one to 

share with you for Halloween too.

These are made with gable boxes which can be found 

HERE (gable boxes)

I also used paper straws.  You can use any that match your design.

I used what I had on hand.  To attach the straws I just hot glued them inside the handle.

The cute red christmas truck is from the new catalog, 

the stamp set is called Farmhouse Christmas

Aren't these little characters so mischievous!

I fussy cut out the little elf and santa and glued

them directly onto the box

I glued santa right onto the box and popped up the

elf with dimensionals.  

This designer series paper is called

Santa's Workshop

Each little crate is filled with Christmas candies

I tied pom pom trim on mine as that is what I had

on hand.  You can add any ribbon that matches your design

Here's how I cut the boxes.

Cut off the two sides as you see in the picture, then

assemble the box and glue the straw to the handle

The possibilities are endless!
