Everybody loves s'mores in the summer. This s'mores box is a fun way to gift a treat to a friend or family
member. Make a few to bring to any summer BBQ’s or bonfires you’re invited to.
MADE BY: SAMANTHA TAYLOR | TIME: 20 MINUTES
LEVEL: BEGINNER/INTERMEDIATE | 5” x 5” x 3”
Supplies:
- Permanent Glue Dots®
- 5”x5”x3” Box
- Patterned Paper (I used Great Outdoors from Paper House Productions)
- Embellishments
- Graham Crackers
- Large Marshmallows
- Mini or Fun Size Chocolate Bars
Directions:
- Cut patterned paper to the with of your candy bar, and long enough to wrap around once (my trips of paper are 2 ½” x 3 ¼”). Wrap paper around a candy bar and secure with Permanent Glue Dots®.)
- Fill box with wrapped candy bars, graham cracker squares, and marshmallows.
- Create a wrap for the box by cutting two 10” x 1 ¼” strips of patterned paper. Attach the two pieces together by overlapping about 1” of the ends and securing with Permanent Glue Dots®. Wrap the long strip around the box and secure on top with Permanent Glue Dots®.
- Embellish the box wrap at the spot where the seams overlap with stickers or ephemera. Attach ephemera with Permanent Glue Dots®.
Often, the adhesive on embellishments isn’t as strong as I’d like. I usually add Glue Dots® to embellishments even if they have their own adhesive.
If you want to make these boxes a few days ahead of time, place the marshmallows in a cellophane bag to keep them from going stale.
Customize boxes by using different candy bars, flavored marshmallows, or flavored graham crackers.
