A couple of friends and I are gathering to create treat packages for some teachers. I found these great treat boxes that look like a backpack! One backpack holds about 3 oz. of candy and a small candy bar in the front pocket. It can also contain things like a 3' X 3" Post-it note pad and a keychain Sharpie. It would be an excellent box to give a teacher as a back-to-school gift! This idea is from Julie DiMatteo, from Paper Pixie. I fell in love with it the minute I found it.
Here's what you will need to make these stinkin' cute gift boxes! After you have made all your cuts and score lines, watch the video to see how it is put together.
