Pooh Bear Gable Treat Box

A charming package gives a gift an air of delightful anticipation, and what could be sweeter than a Silly Old Bear and his honey pot?

We used to carefully flatten our lunch boxes (which were a larger version of this one) when we attended Stampin’ Up!®️ “Convention” years ago at the Salt Palace…they were ideal for stamping on and using as gift wrapping! Now we have White Gable Boxes which are food safe and perfectly sized for a cupcake or small treat (6-1/4″ x 4″ x 2-1/2″) …and each one is just a dollar (comes in a package of 10).

Wrap a 2″ x 12″ strip of patterned paper around the box and cover the gap on the front with a focal point (I added an embossed plaid on the diagonal for Pooh’s background). Simple and adorable.

Assembling the boxes: Gable Boxes come flat, but once you’ve adorned your box as you wish, open the box, fold in the U-shaped flap first, then the sides. Finally, push in the large tab and it will pop back into box shape. Put your treat/gift in the top and pinch the scallop handle together, sliding it into the slot on each slanted side.
