Happy Monday crafters! ☺
I was inspired to make this treat holder from one of the new CottageCutz Christmas dies called Cookies & Cocoa! This holder is perfect for gifting a big cookie and a packet of hot cocoa mix for those friends and family who drop by during the holidays! They can easily be made up ahead of time so you have some on hand!
I recently saw this video by MayMay Made It and thought it was pretty cute, but it wasn't until I saw the Cookies & Cocoa die from CottageCutz that I remembered this li'l treat tote and how it would be perfect with these new Christmas dies!!
So I used the basic shape, but I changed up the measurements to suit my needs. I also came up with 2 styles of handles so your recipients can carry it with them. After I made the first one using the Ginger Friends, I decided it would be best to show you how I did it in a video (at end of this post). I used the Snowmen Friends on my 2nd one. Both versions use the Cookies & Cocoa die on one side.
