Milk Carton Treat Boxes

Tuesday, November 1, 2022

I've been playing around in my studio lately trying to come up with this year's treat boxes for my craft fairs. Every year I sell out of these treat boxes as they make great gifts for teachers, bus drivers and coaches. I design them so a gift card fits nicely into the box as well as some candy or chocolate. I was trying to find a milk carton design for this year but couldn't find one that would work for me. I felt a little like Goldilocks as 1 was too small, another was just a little too big but also required a 12 X 12 piece of cardstock, which cut into my color choices. Turns out I was going to have to do some math and come up with my own size. HERE'S WHAT I CAME UP WITH!

Treat Box Instructions

Here's what you'll need:

1. On the long side of your cardstock score at 2 1/2, 5, 7 1/2, and 10 inches.

Score short side at 2 1/2, 5 and 7 inches.

2. Trim as shown being careful to keep the 3/4" seam at the top of the cardstock.

Cut along bottom score lines on 10 1/2 " side.

3. Burnish all score lines.

4. Find mid point of 2nd and 4th 3/4" blocks and score down to 1st score line. From that point on the score line score additional lines diagonally to 2nd score line, creating a scored triangle as shown.
