Hi! I was so inspired by TGF's current Farm Fresh Friday challenge--You're Hot and You're Cold to finally use Cafe Ian. And I have that song in my head every time I read the challenge post. I wasn't quite sure what to make until I saw an unopened box of hot chocolate on my shelf. I was afraid it was expired but hot chocolate lasts a long time--this box doesn't expire until 2012! Anyway, I thought I could make like a tea box dispenser thingy except larger to hold hot chocolate packets. But in the end, I made it a bit different.
It's almost like an upright tissue box cover but just smaller. It fits 10 packets of hot chocolate.
Here is the front with Cafe Ian. I love this paper and thought he matched nicely sipping hot chocolate on Xmas morning. The sentiment is from PTI's Tiny Treats Christmas.
A different view.
The top view. I used PTI's label die to cut through the top for easy access.
I think my project fits both the hot and cold theme. It's Christmas-y but also it's hot chocolate. Hehe. I'm glad too that I made another Xmas gift for one of my kids' teachers/classroom aides/extra-curricular coach/teachers. After making my list, I realize there are about 16 teacher gifts I have to make! I've made 3 things so far so 13 more to go. That's doable, right? Though I better get on to the Halloween goodies too.
Thanks for reading!
