Heart to Heart Valentine Treat Box for family, friends, Co-workers and Teachers

While looking over my Valentine kits and printables I decided I wanted to redesign this cute heart box. I know, but I just couldn't help myself. We changed the shape of the top heart, added a glitter arrow, a cellophane bag and a cute bow with a glitter heart……I like this design much better……how about you? It's just a fun way to give a Valentine treat to someone special or lots of special people.  It elevates the treat that you put inside. How about the kid's teachers?

Here's a side view so you can get a better idea of what the box looks like. It measures 3.5" across the widest part of the heart and 4" tall. The perfect size for the snack size candy bars, Hershey Kisses, Hershey Nuggets and cookies. The conversation hearts will fit nicely inside too. 

You can also put any kind of loose candy in it and not worry about them spilling out since it is inside the clear cellophane bag.  Makes it easier for the kids to take to school for the Teacher.

Choose from 3 different messages. You order one message for your heart boxes or a variety of messages. It's totally up to you. What message do you need?

We know most of you need to put a name on your so we included a tag just for that reason.

Here we are showing you everything that is included in the kit.  Cellophane bag, bow, glitter heart, glitter arrow, heart box, twine, top heart and a message tag.  The crinkle paper isn't included in the kit  but you can purchase bags of crinkle paper at The Dollar Store for $1.

Valentine's Day Treat Holder for Class Treats-Easy to Make

This Valentine treat holder is modeled after British Christmas crackers  No, it isn't full of crackers but with candy and treats for a Valentine's Day gift. Very easy to make and fun to give away. Make some for a class treat too.

The tutorial said to use paper toilet rolls (tube)  but who has time to wait until you have the right amount of rolls saved up?  I just measured the circumference of a toilet roll and cut cardstock to match, rolled it in a circle and glued it together. I would suggest using a very strong tape or even a glue gun to secure it together.   (Toilet roll measured 5.5" around and 5" tall. I would cut your scrapbook paper a little wider (maybe 6" or 6 1/4") so you can easily glue it together. 

I used two sheets of tissue paper, (you could use 1) cut 11" square and rolled it around the tube and taped it. Use ribbon or twine on each end, tied in a bow.  Then add a piece of cardstock or wrapping paper on top measuring  4" x 6" Them embellish it however you want. We punched out small hearts and used our tiniest paper punch to punch a hole in each side and then threaded twine through to make a banner. You'll need to tie a one-sided bow on each end.  We then put glue on each heart so it would stay on the roll as shown above.

The tag is one that we offered in our Cupid's Arrow/Pixie Stick freebie. Be sure to write  "to and from" before you attach the tag to make it easier to write it.

This sweet treat container is very easy to open, just pull on the tissue paper. You could make a bunch of these in no time at all. Use stickers or other fun things to decorate it.  Here is our inspiration for this project. There's a tutorial on the site too.
