Papertrey Ink Blog Hop- October

Hi friends,
Today I'm participating in PTI's Holiday Blog Hop. Our challenge was to create something that's part of our holiday plans for cards, gifts or wraps. I don't have my last order yet, so I had to go with plan B. It is a chimney/fireplace box of goodies for all the kiddos in our family we'll be seeing during the holidays:

It is made up of two parts: The chimney/fireplace box & the hearth made from a mini-pizza box.

I added some of my favorite confections (since right now I don't have any Christmas candy on hand.)
It was really easy to make! I've got 2 more versions to share with ya:

This one has a sign hanging from the mantel:


This one has a banner:The mini-pizza box opens to give me another place to stash a card or more goodies. Here it is open:I've got 12 in all to make, but these are quite easy to put together. If you'd like to make one for yourself, I can create a tutorial of this project--- let me know & check back later if you're interested. Thanks so much for hopping by! I'm soooo excited to see what you've created, so...Gotta Go!
