Supplies

5 ¼” x 3 ¾” piece of cardstock (or heavy patterned paper) for box
5 1/8” x 3 1/16” piece of cardstock (or heavy patterned paper) for sliding cover
Paper cutter with scoring blade
Scissors
Sticky Strip™
or other adhesive
3 Hershey's® Nuggets® chocolate bars
3 1” x 3 ¼” piecess of cardstock or patterned paper
or Avery® 5160 address labels
Embellishments

Step 1

Step 1.
On the 5 ¼” x 3 ¾” piece of cardstock,
score all 4 sides at ½” and 1 1/8”. It is easiest to measure the ½”
mark on the left side of the cutting/scoring blade track. Then turn the
paper around to measure the 1 1/8” mark on the right side of the
cutting/scoring blade track.


Step 2

Step 2.
Use scissors
to remove the 3 small boxes that make an “L” shape at EACH corner. On
the long (5 ¼”) sides, cut along the score line to the 1 1/8” mark
creating little flaps as shown.

The box goes together easily if the flaps are trimmed on an angle as shown.


Step 3

Step 3.
Fold each short side and then the long sides of the box, securing with Sticky Strip.

Use a bone folder or other straight edge to give the creases a sharp, crisp fold.


Step 4

Step 4.
This becomes the box.


Step 5

Step 5.
Moving on to the 5 1/8” x 3 1/16” piece of cardstock, with the 5 1/8” side at the base of the trimmer, score the 3 1/16” length at the 11/16”, 2 ¼”, 2 15/16” and 4 7/16” marks.


Step 6

Step 6.
Fold on the score lines, wrap around the box to check for correct fit
and secure the overlapping edges with Sticky Strip. This is the sleeve.


Step 8

Step 7.
You may use strips of cardstock or patterned paper cut into 1” x 3 ¼”
strips. Because the cardstock is a heavier weight, use glue dots to
secure the two ends of the strip at the bottom of the nugget. This
creates a mini sleeve for each nugget.


Step 7

Nuggets may also be covered with stamped 1” x 2 5/8” (Avery® 5160) address labels.
