Fable Friends – Self Closing Easter Treat box

I  had originally scheduled this post to publish last Friday, but when I looked at the calendar, I suddenly realized that Mother’s Day in the UK is on Sunday 31st March!    Suffice to say when you have to re-schedule, a lot of  things  happen behind the scenes to re-edit, change titles, re-render the footage on this video in addition to having to create a new one to fill in the now vacant slot for Friday’s one!  Phew!  After all that palaver, I hope you enjoy today’s project! 

Here’s a video tute on how I made the box – I’ve made different versions of this throughout the years in different sizes too.        This one will fit a mini Lindt rabbit or you can make up little bags of mini eggs using  Stampin’ Up!’s  cello bags.  I used the 2″x 8″ cello bags and cut them in half so it would hold 5 mini M&M Easter eggs.     To seal the bottom of the 2nd half which will be open at both ends, I just folded 1/8″ a couple of times and used cello tape to seal one end and tied  the opening with linen  thread after I’d put the eggs in.
