My pal's grandson is making chocolates for Christmas presents to save money this year! (Don't know that he is going to save much, having made chocolates myself when I used to teach cake decorating - but I have a feeling that it won't be costing him much, but will be costing his gran!). Anyway she asked if I could make some small chocolate boxes for him. Originally we were going to try a larger version of the triangular favour boxes that I made, and then I came up with this prototype of a more standard box, using double-sided card. The size of the base is 12cm x 8cm x 3cm finished depth. Added a small poinsettia made with MS poinsettia punch with stickles in centre.
The question now is what to charge for them if he likes them - they take a sheet and a half of A4 card to make each one!
The box looks great! The trouble is nothing is that cheap to make is it?
