5 Candy Box Single Row

*5 ¾ x 7 in bottom
*8 3/8 x 4 ¼ in lid

10 Candy Box Double Row 5 +5
*5 ¾ x 8 in bottom
*8 3/8 x 5 ¼ in lid

All of the above bottoms are made by scoring ¾ from edge then ¾ from that score line (1 ½ from edge) all the way around. Then cut according to diagram 1.

Fold tabs and glue. Then fold in double walls and glue. See diagram 2

Single row sleeve lids are scored 1 in from edge then ¾ from that score line (1 ¾ ) Form a sleeve around filled nugget box and tape closed. Using a filled box will loosen the sleeve so it can be opened and slid easily for recipient! See diagram 3

Double row sleeve lids are scored 2 in from edge then ¾ from that score line (2 ¾ ) Form a sleeve around filled nugget box and tape closed. Using a filled box will loosen the sleeve so it can be opened and slid easily for recipient! See diagram 4

Note: *Make sure you do not score the 5 1/8 side for single row boxes.
Note: *Make sure you do not score the 8 3/8 side for double row boxes.

I would recommend making one out of scrap paper 1st and keep that as your model for the future. Also I would use Sticky Tape/Terrifically Tacky Tape/Scor-Tape/ATG for holding box together.

Nuggets Nuggets and more Nuggets!! I Love Chocolate!

This has been a very fun project! I have been making Lots of Nugget Boxes with my Scor-Pal scoring tool. I updated the nugget box measurements to work easier with the Scor-Pal , and made up a revamped tutorial in the process. I will be uploading the file in a Word and PDF format file within the next week. So keep your eyes peeled for my upload. Coincidentally this last week Splitcoast had a Technique Lovers Challenge #144 to make nugget boxes with Acetate sleeves. So the baby box was created!
P.S. Sometime this week I will be posting the tutorial for everyone to upload in either a Word or PDF format. I have submitted it to the Scor-Pal website and want to release it around the same time they do. Thanks for asking Shannon.

Quick and Easy Nugget Boxes

These two were by far the easiest to do. Not much detail just ribbon around them. The red one is Double Sided (DS) paper and a quick stamping on the Avery 8160 labels with the small "Priceless" flourish. The black and gold is done with a wheel on both the sleeve of the nugget box and the labels. The gold labels are from Avery but the ink takes a really long time to dry, you have to handle with care not to smear them. I really miss the Organdy ribbon that SU used to sell. Much classier I think.

Valentine Nugget Box!
