Today I want to share this great idea to make “strawberries†out of Dove chocolate hearts. I got this idea from another demonstrator, Barb Thomas. She made an adorable decorated cardstock box of strawberries.
Our Sweet Strawberry bundle is a punch bundle that you can use to make the stems. They are stamped with Garden Green ink on Granny Apple Green Cardstock, punched, and added to each chocolate with a Glue Dot. So cute!!
I made a very simple berry crate. I used two pieces of Early Espresso Cardstock, 2″ x 4 3/4″ and 2 1/4″ x 4 3/4″, each scored at 1 1/4″ and 3 1/2″. The score lines create the 1 1/4″ high sides of the crate, and the middle of each strip is part of the crate bottom. The bottoms are simply glued together, and then the sides are banded by a 1/2″ x 12″ strip of designer paper from the In Good Taste collection.
The crate is packaged in one of our 3″ x 9″ Printed Gusseted Cello Bags. The tag is made from stamps in our Sale-a-bration host set, Punch Party. If you have a few friends who would like to place their orders as a group, please contact me to set this up – a group order of $300 earns this set for the Host!
I also made this strawberry version of the ever-popular wrapped Hershey Nugget tray. The strawberries are so cute lined up this way! We no longer carry the 2″ cello bags for this project, but maybe you have some in your stash. The tray measures 5″ long x 2 1/4″ wide, scored at 1/2″ and 1 3/4″.
I made these strawberry projects for Valentine’s Day for my booth at NW Creations & Collectibles, but I think they will be super-cute for strawberry season as well, with summery colors and tags. We may need to think ahead to get our Dove chocolate hearts now – and try to save them for June 🙂
