From My Heart Self Closing Treat Box.Welcome back to another of my Valentine’s Day Mini Series. I have another Gifting suggestion for you today with this cute little treat box. I found the original of this on the Julie DiMatteo Paper Pixie‘s YouTube Channel and it really is the cutest thing.
What is great is that you can change the dimensions to fit your little gift. If you want to use a Tag Punch at the top, just make sure that the maximum width of the box, when flat, is 2″. Because mine has a base that is 1″ square, this is perfect.
I chose to use the stunningly beautiful From My Heart Specialty Designer Series Paper. You only need a smallish piece, so it is great for using up smaller pieces from other projects. My full dimensions are at the bottom of this post, so if you watch the video, there is no need to scrabble for a pencil. The stamping is also on scraps, so it really is a great project for using up bits and pieces.
I didn’t add a tag, but you absolutely could, just remember that if you want the recipient to be able to get into the box without ripping it, don’t tie it through the holes too tightly! Now you can hop over to my YouTube Channel and see just how easy it is to make this little guy.
I hope you enjoyed this. It is going to be a great one to have in your arsenal of gift boxes. Just change the paper, or make it bigger and in card, and you have a totally different look.

Dimensions
If you have a pattern that has a direction up and down the paper, make sure you cut it so the longer side is horizontal to the pattern. When you come to scoring and cutting, the four flaps should be at the bottom of the pattern.
Designer Series Paper – 4 x 4-1/2″. With the long edge at the top, score at 2″ and 4″. Quarter turn to the left, so the narrow score line is at the top, score at 1″ and 3-1/2″. Quarter turn to the left, so the narrow score line is to the left, score at 1-1/2″ and 3-1/2″ BUT only to the first score line!!!
