Hello! Last year I made some ‘origami bunny’ chocolate bar wrappers and I thought the bunny would look nice on these treat boxes. The design is really minimal and suitable for kids and grown-ups.
If you want to make a real origami bunny then check out this post at howaboutorange.
Are you making anything for Easter? If so do tell!
The sun has finally started shining in the UK after a long, wet winter. I’m already in the mood for summer and have been working on some geometric icosahedron ice creams! Can’t wait to show you them in a week or so. Until then, happy crafting!

STEP-BY-STEP
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
1. Print out the template. Set your printing preferences to ‘photo’ and ‘grayscale’.
2. Score and fold along all the lines (see the ‘cutting/scoring plan’ below for more details). Then trim around the solid edge. (TIP: it’s better to score first, then trim otherwise you will cut away all the scoring guides).
3. Fold into box shape and secure tabs with a gluestick or sticky tape.
4. Carefully press the sides of the carton in to create the tetra-pak style top. I trimmed the top edge of the carton with zig-zag scissors.
5. Fill your boxes with treats.
6. Tape the top closed. You can use washi tape, paper-clips, split pins, little pegs or anything else that comes to hand.
