Sweet treat dispensers

I found a pattern in one of the Docrafts Creativity magazines for a Sweet treat dispenser and straight away I said that it would make the nicest Christmas gifts for the smaller children in the family and friend group.

Here are a few photos of the three that I have made so far:

 This is one of the box's made for a friends daughter Chloe, you lift the lid to load in the sweets and the sweets will be held in the top half of the box. There is a shelf in the top half that you twist on a kebab stick which will let the sweets then drop through a whole in the shelf to the bottom half of the box. The front part of the box where the name is is then pulled open and the sweets can be removed from the box. The christmas tree is 7 trees folded and glued together to make up the 3D tree and I glued lots of multi coloured rhinestones on and the star is glue onto the lid of the box. The Santa claus is from My Scrap Chick svg cuts. The paper range is the same as the Christmas cards and its from My minds eye.

The wreaths on the top of the box is to hide the kebab stick, and it is made from the seal on the milk bottle containers. Using pipe cleaners and a bell to complete the look of a wreath.

Thank you

Valerie
