Mini Rabbit Hutch chocolate treat holder



I found these little chocolate bunnies in a supermarket, and just had to get them for an easter project. Each little 'hutch' holds 2 of the rabbits, back to back, and I think the net of bunnies had about 15, so these are great for a little treat for your little ones, or could be used as party favours for a kids party.

The hutch is basically a mini version of Monday's project. although, the box in the bottom is probably a little simpler to make.

Hope you like them!

Thanks for popping by

Instructions:

Cardstock 3 1/4" x 2" (8cm x 4.5cm)

Score on the long side at 1", 1 1/2", 2 1/2", 3" (2.5cm, 3.5cm, 6cm, 7cm)

Score on the short side at 1/2", 1 1/2" (1cm, 3.5cm)

On the long side, cut straight up each score line. to the first score line. Slightly wedge into each of the squares. Completely remove the narrow rectangle at the end, up to the first score line. Repeat for the opposite side.

Punch a hole in the centre 1" square section using the 3/4" punch.

Fold & burnish all score lines.

Now form your box, by adhering the tab on the end to the other end of the box, then fold in & glue the flaps on the side.

For the 'roof' of the 'hutch' use a strip of DSP (I used Gingham Gala) 1 1/8" x 6" (3cm x 15.2cm)
Score, on the long side 5/8" (1.5cm) from one end, and 3/4" (2cm) from the other end.
Apply tear tape to the 3/4" (2cm) end on the side of the DSP that you want showing.

Apply wet glue to the base & sides of the box (NOT the front or back) Attach the strip of DSP to the box, starting with the 3/4" end on the bottom, the score line lined up on the corner, then wrap it round so that the other score line lines up with the opposite side of the box and the 5/8" (1.5cm) flap attaches to the tear tape.

I finished mine by stamping onto a scrap of whisper white card, using the 'Treats' stamp from the Sweetest Thing bundle, cut with the matching die, and attached to the front with a dimensional.
