100 Years of Pooh Bear: Window Treat Box

Did you know that everyone’s favorite “silly old bear” officially turns 100 years old on October 14th? While the character appeared first in a poetry book by A.A. Milne entitled When We Were Very Young a few years earlier, the classic storybook Winnie the Pooh was published on October 14, 1926, making Pooh Bear a centenarian this month!

I shared a gable treat box previously with this cuddly bear who now appears in the Stampin’ Up!®️ Silly Old Bear Suite Collection, and then I figured out how to make a window in the box, so naturally needed to share the instructions.

With a video walk-through AND a printable tutorial, YOU can make this, too!

Use ANY of the 2026-2028 In Colors from the Gingham Gallery Designer Series Paper (OR the Barely Blush gingham print that is included in the Silly Old Bear Designer Series Paper included in the suite). This version shows it in the Golden Glow color, filled with a yummy-for-your-tummy:

Now that you’ve printed the tutorial, here are a few close-ups of the box. Golden Glow is the PERFECT hue for this bear, so you don’t even have to color him in:

You could bake sweet treat or fill it with Bit-O-Honey candies… or curate a non-sweet treat such as a spool of ribbon, embellishments, liquid glue, and a few pieces of chocolate, which would delight any crafter!
