![Trick or Treat Box (Lindsey@popdotmarketing.com)](https://blog.gluedots.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Trick%20or%20Treat%20Box%20(Lindsey@popdotmarketing.com).jpg?width=300&height=200&name=Trick%20or%20Treat%20Box%20(Lindsey@popdotmarketing.com).jpg)

**Supplies:**

- [Glue Dots® Permanent Glue Squares  ](https://gluedots.com/products/permanent-glue-squares-dot-n-go)
- [Glue Dots® Removable Glue Squares](https://gluedots.com/products/removable-glue-squares-dot-n-go)
- 10 ½” x 10 ½” sheet of patterned paper
- 9” x 9” sheet of patterned paper
- 5 1/8” x 5 1/8” sheet of card stock
- 9 pieces of candy
- Paper Scorer
- Scissors
- Ephemera, stickers, or other embellishments (optional) 

**Directions:**

1. Take the 10 ½” piece of patterned paper and score it at 3.5” and 7”. Turn it 90 degrees and score it again at 3.5” and 7”. Cut the corner squares out using the scored lines as guidelines. ![Trick or Treat Box-001](https://blog.gluedots.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Trick%20or%20Treat%20Box-001.jpg?width=300&height=200&name=Trick%20or%20Treat%20Box-001.jpg)
2. Take the 9” x 9” piece of patterned paper and score it at 3” and 6”. Turn it 90 degrees and score it again at 3” and 6”. Cut the corner squares out using the scored lines as guidelines.   
   ![Trick or Treat Box-002](https://blog.gluedots.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Trick%20or%20Treat%20Box-002.jpg?width=300&height=200&name=Trick%20or%20Treat%20Box-002.jpg)
3. Use Permanent Glue Squares® to attach the center square only of smaller box to the center of the larger box. Leave the flaps independent.    
   ![Trick or Treat Box-003](https://blog.gluedots.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Trick%20or%20Treat%20Box-003.jpg?width=300&height=200&name=Trick%20or%20Treat%20Box-003.jpg)
4. Attach candy to each of the flaps and the center square with Removable Glue Squares®. ![Trick or Treat Box-005 (Lindsey@popdotmarketing.com)](https://blog.gluedots.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Trick%20or%20Treat%20Box-005%20(Lindsey@popdotmarketing.com).jpg?width=300&height=450&name=Trick%20or%20Treat%20Box-005%20(Lindsey@popdotmarketing.com).jpg)
5. Take the 5 5/8” x 5 5/8” piece of black card stock and score it at 1” and 4 5/8”. Turn it 90 degrees and score again at 1” and 4 5/8”.   
   ![Trick or Treat Box-006](https://blog.gluedots.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Trick%20or%20Treat%20Box-006.jpg?width=300&height=200&name=Trick%20or%20Treat%20Box-006.jpg)
6. Fold along your score lines. Use the score lines as a guide to cut a flap on each side of the lid. Fold the small flap under and secure it to the side of the box lid using Permanent Glue Squares®.   
   ![Trick or Treat Box-007](https://blog.gluedots.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Trick%20or%20Treat%20Box-007.jpg?width=300&height=200&name=Trick%20or%20Treat%20Box-007.jpg)
7. Place lid on box (securing all the box flaps under the lid).   
   ![Trick or Treat Box-008-1](https://blog.gluedots.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Trick%20or%20Treat%20Box-008-1.jpg?width=300&height=200&name=Trick%20or%20Treat%20Box-008-1.jpg)
8. Embellish with stickers or ephemera. 

Notes: While I prefer Glue Squares for this project due to their small size, Permanent and Removable Glue Dots® would also work.  

If you’d like to go even bigger, add a 3rd box from a 12” x 12” piece of patterned paper scored at 4” and 8”. You’ll also need to increase the size of the lid to 6 1/8” square, scoring at 1” in on every side.
