With the July 4th celebration just around the corner, I made a couple treat boxes for my friend's grandsons. I bought a container of red, white and blue gummy bears that I thought would be cute for the occasion, so I made these boxes and filled them with those candies. They were made with Lawn Fawn candy box dies, and I found some remnants of red and blue polka dotted dsp to make them, then added some remnant die-cut elements for 3 sides. One side says "Happy", one side says "July" and the third side says "4th." I added punched stars in assorted colors and tied the ends with some red, white, and blue twine in keeping with the patriotic colors. I think they'll get a kick of out them when the July 4th festivities begin!
I'm sharing these with:

These are so fun! I miss making all these fun little treat holders for my work mates. Super patriotic! 💕Sue Kment
Oh my gosh these are the cutest and how fun to place the red, white and blue treats inside with it! They remind me of those poppers for the fireworks! Love the twine you've added to the ends as well!
Your treat boxes are always so fun, a joy to see and for sure even more to receive, especially with their sweet content!! :D These are really perfect for the occasion and such great idea split the say "Happy 4th July" on three sides! Also the colours are just perfect! Very well done!!
Sending big hugs and love as always! Take care and enjoy your new week!
You know how much I love seeing your treats, Carol!!! This just makes me smile! Love, love, love the cracker boxes and how you decorated them! I did not attempt to make any patriotic things this year which I am sad about. I did look at the grocery store for some red, white & blue candies and only found tootsie rolls (blah!) so I passed. Your friend's grandsons will enjoy them and with the gummy bears they won't melt! TFS and wishing you a cool day!
OMG ... these are just awesome! Thanks so much for joining in the fun at our Four Seasons Challenge! Good Luck and we hope you’ll come back again soon.

These are fabulous Carol! I'll be out looking for those red, white and blue gummies to make some for the grandkids!
A very thoughtful idea Carol and I am sure the boys will love them.
Thanks for the message about lemon juice, I've also taken it since my last bout in 2019, sadly one of my conditions means I have elevated calcium, hence stones, a 10mm one last time needed five rounds of blasting to break down. Nephroscope not successful so lots of meds for a month then try again!!

Oh, those treat boxes are super cute! Love how you decorated them, so festive! I’m sure the recipients will love them, how fun!
Your firecracker treat boxes are patriotic and delightful, Carol! I love the way you did the Happy July 4th and tied the pretty paper with red, white, and blue twine and added the stars! I've been thinking of you with that heat. Hope you are managing to keep cool! Hugs, Darnell
So beautiful.
Your treat boxes sound absolutely delightful for the July 4th celebration! The red, white, and blue gummy bears inside are a perfect touch for the occasion. The Lawn Fawn candy box dies and the polka dotted DSP give them such a festive look, and the "Happy July 4th" messages along with the punched stars and twine tie everything together beautifully. They're sure to be a hit at the festivities!
These are absolutely just the cutest!!! I am sure they will be loved!!!
Thank you for joining our challenge at The Four Seasons!
