Welcome to our January NC Demos Blog Hop! I always appreciate you joining me every month :). You may have started with me, or landed here from Tracie Evans Langley’s blog, where she shared her amazing project for this month. Either way, I’m so happy you are here!
This month’s theme focuses on occasions to celebrate. We were to use products from our current Sale-a-Bration offering and/or Jan-Apr Mini catalog. I decided to use something from both categories. And just to change things up a bit, I decided to do a treat container instead of my usual card. This project can be used for any occasion, birthday, thank you, wedding, or baby shower favors. The list is endless!
I was inspired by fellow demonstrator, Claire Ottaway from the UK. Her project dimensions were in metric, so I played around with them and converted them to inches. I also slightly modified the measurements so that you could use a 6″ piece of DSP to make it more efficient.
I loved the project for a couple of reasons. I just love 3D projects and this one can be folded flat and stored easily. This allows you to make multiples of them and set them aside until you have the appropriate occasion to gift them. Most 3D projects can be a bit challenging to store, so this works perfectly!
Here’s the inside of the container. It;s fairly roomy so you can fill it with lots of different tasty treats 🙂
I’ve created both a tutorial and a video for this project. And I will share with you that the video was quite challenging. Not for creating the project, but just for me filming it, lol! I had to restart it several times. Maybe that’s what happens when you wait until the last minute to do a video.

I hope you enjoyed my project. If you decide to give it a try, please share your finished creation :). Now please continue to see what the rest of the blog hop team has for you. Frances Wagner is next and I know you’ll love what she has shared.

Super pretty and amazing 3D project!
Thanks so much, Kelly 🙂
Toni, thanks for sharing, I love a cute, easy treat box. I am going to try this.
You’re welcome, Frances. And I plan on making quite a few of these. I have 2 family weddings in June this year and I think they would be perfect for table favors.
What a cute box I am definitely going to make a few. Thanks for sharing
Thanks, Tina! They are definitely quick to make, once you get the DSP folds down 😉
Thanks for sharing such a cute box. I’ve run off the directions and I plan to make this. I love the DSP inside the box! Watched your video and I can identify. Sometimes life is a little harder. Good tips!
Thanks, Jo Anne. That video was definitely a challenge, lol!
Very cute! I love little treat holders.
Thanks, Martinette, I do too!
Toni – I love the treat box. It is so unique! I’m definitely going to share it with my Stamp Club. It would be perfect for a few pieces of chocolate for Valentine’s Day. Thanks for all the tips and tricks that you showed in your video. They were very helpful!
What a cute little box! Great project, Toni! I love that it folds flat so you can make several at a time then easily store them until you need them. Thank you for sharing!
