Pretty Packaging for Holiday Treats (Martha Stewart Crafts Shopping Code and Sweeps)

I bake a lot during the holidays.
That is what we are supposed to do right?
I go to cookie exchanges...
and bring gifts to the neighbors...
and the teachers...and friends.
And all of those need to be packaged, right? 
 
I spend hours baking and making sure everything is out-of-this-world-delightful...
and then I realize I have no pretty (and easy) way to package them...
until now.

I picked up some "sweet" Martha Stewart Crafts Treat Boxes a few months ago on a whim.
Well, I have been using them for baked goodies, small trinkets,
and, well, pretty much anything that needs a pretty package ever since.

I also picked up Loaf Trays (similar to those picture below) from Martha Stewart Crafts. They were a "sweet deal" - I could not pass them up (bad habit of mine). 

I was so excited...Martha done all the work for me...
all the necessities are included
- tissue/wrapper, ribbon, labels, boxes - 
With these boxes and trays it takes little effort to package treats beautifully.

For the holidays, Martha Stewart Crafts has some sweet and festive designs to add
a wonderful touch to your baked holiday treats!

  2. Do you know how to fold the tops of the “Snow Lace Treat Boxes”? Very complicated.

    1. I fold it like a milk carton...I put my hand inside and kind of use two fingers as anchors for the diagonal lines and then push with my thumb on the outside at the horizontal line. It does not "crease" hard on the lines, but with your fingers as a brace, it does fold. (I could not find an email address for you directly)
