the popcorn.

I think this looks cuter. Don't eat the popcorn though...the last thing you want is a mouth full of Tarzan's Grip.

And now for the gifting part...

I fashioned this gift from tin cans I'd saved but it would work just as well using a milk carton (in fact, now I think of it that would probably work even better...darn it). Then I embroidered the popcorn piece & the red stripe once. Next, I scanned & mucked around with it in publisher until I was happy with the placement.

Anyway...if you'd like to make a cute gift box for a movie ticket & popcorn gift then head over & pick up the jpegs sized & ready to print:

surround
& lid (if you don't want to go with the real popcorn like I did).

Then adhere to your chosen recycled container.

...I had to have a go with the milk carton - I'm happy.

Absolutely basic "present wrapping" construction - no words required...

    That looks so fantastic. Hope you did well at the Yarraville Market! It was great to see you wonderful stuff - so many pretty things. Cheers, Fran.

    They're both fab! The milk carton looks just like the popcorn at the movies.

    I love the can, but that milk carton with your fancy folding is very impressive! Either one is would make my son very happy!!!
