I’ve been wanting to make a huge candy wrapper box for a long time! It has always been a challenge for me to figure out how to make the ends of the boxes do that cute fold-and-pop thing that makes the box looks so cute. Alas, I decided to just buy a box of Ghirardelli peppermint stick chocolates, take the box apart, and copy it.
You’re in luck, because I made a template of the box for you, too! Download it HERE.
The box is large enough to fit about a dozen chocolates. (I’m sure you could hide a diamond ring inside there, too.) It makes a great Valentine’s Day gift. You can put a gift card inside, too. Teachers would love to find one on their desk for Valentine’s Day, don’t you think?
Do you like the cool “Wonderful You” roses embellishment that I added to the box?
