Hexagon Shape Candy Holder Tutorial

Dear All,
Some of the friends are having a trouble of making these candy holders as some of the measurements were not right on my last post, which now I corrected. I am extremely sorry for that.

Here is the tutorial and hope it will be helpful !

Card Stock measurement - 7.5" X 6.5"

On 6 1/2 " Side score at 1/2" then every 1" increment till the end.

Turn the paper on 90 degrees so you will get 7 1/2" side, score at 1" , 1 1/2" and 2" from both ends.

Mountain fold both scored sides of 7 1/2" side.

Fold all 1" marks on 6 1/2 "side so you will get a roll.

Like so...

Use a strong glue on 1/2" fold and stick to the other end from inside.

Now easiest way to cut the diamonds on both ends, first mark on 1/2" in between all 1" score marks.

And with keeping tiny distance cut into diamond shape. Do not cut till the mark otherwise it will brake a part.

It will look like this when done.

To make this box sturdy and hold in a shape we will need two of 1 3/4" circles and we need to insert them in both ends and stick.

Just like this..

Now your box is ready. You can decorate how you prefer and insert your goodies inside and close both ends using beautiful decorative ribbons.

Thank you!!

Love,
Archana

Dear All,
I am coming to you with pretty purple surprise collection by Hearfelt Creations, called, " Italiana Rivera".
I can't find the words to explain the beauty of this collection so please check my and my fellow DT members projects and you will get to know how pretty is this one!!

It's time to slow down the daily pace, take a deep breath and embrace life with the new Heartfelt Creations Italiana Riviera Collection.  We invite you to stroll down the Italian coastline taking in the spectacular seaside views, open markets, and amazing architecture while allowing yourself to relax and get lost in an easy going way of life.  Feel the gentle breeze, breathe in the aromas of salty mist and mouthwatering eats as you pass by a harbour lined with delightful cafes and quaint little shops calling out to you to pause for a visit. Step through towering stone gates to meander through perfectly manicured vineyards boasting rows and rows of coiling vines filled with dense foliage and  plump clusters of exquisitely purple hued grapes.  Then as the sun sets, continue to take in the old world charm and beauty of the area as you relax in your villa, enjoying a glass of fine wine aged to perfection while jotting down all of the days wonderful adventures on an old fashioned postcard, pausing occasionally only to peer out the old stone window that reveals the most surreal view of lush gardens, stately mountains, beautiful flowers and that perfectly manicured vineyard.  At Heartfelt Creations we dismiss the misconceived notion that you are required to leave your craft room to experience the finer things in life...so come along with us as we invite you to explore the charm and elegance of the Italiana Riviera Collection!
