1.Cut your paper to 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 in.
2. Pull the paper a little along the side of a table. This helps to round the paper and the paper will stay together when you glue it.3-Place double sided tape on the inside of paper. Cover the full length of one long side and ONE short side of your paper. Then stick them together. It should look like this.
4. Crimp the side that you glued. 3-4 crimps should be good.5. Now add the treats.
6. Next, glue the other side, but remember to glue it the opposite way you glued the first side! Then crimp that edge. See the pic to help you here.
*If you don't have a crimper, no worries!!! You can use a ruler and stylus and make crimp marks on the edges.
7. Now, it's time to add a few of your own special touches!!! Punch 2 holes at the top and put a piece of ribbon through it. You can tie it in a knot or a bow. You can add a tag if you like, a flower embellishment or a button-whatever your heart desires!!!
Enjoy! This little treat holder can be used for just about any holiday, not just Christmas. I've made them with Halloween treats in them, as well as for Easter. They would be great for birthday party favors, too!
