I love this box!! You can downsize it too for home made fudge or other little goodies. I made little ones for fudge and home made chocolate Christmas candies. Soon as I can fold and glue I plan on making some more for this crop! I plan on doing one in non-Christmas theme if that's ok, have a going away goodie box to make for a friend at work.

Here is mine. I did not glue it all together so I can lay it flat until I need it. (Storage is minimal here)
Love the box and I loved it last year too. Thanks Dana

Here is my take on this one. I had a little trouble since I mostly use SCAL and I think this was geared more for MTC but I made it work. The score lines were cut lines in SCAL. I have MTC but for some reason I can't get my cuts to cut where they are on the mat, just need to practice more I guess. I messed up some of my best paper trying. Anyway, I love this box and will definitely do more of these.
