Egg Treat Tote Place Card

 

Add a sweet spark to springtime settings, 

or tuck one into an Easter basket. 

You’ll probably find many useful situations for 

this one-piece egg shaped treat tote. 

Tapered side two-segment boxing folds inward, 

jigsaw-knob center edges are fit and taped 

together, then minimal glue or two-sided tape holds 

front and back walls in place to form the container 

for wrapped candy or cookie, loose sweets. 

Thread and tie ribbon or twine through 

punch holes as accent closure – 

choose the version with holes 

that match your ribbon. 

To direct guests at your Easter brunch or 

party table, add the wavy band with penned 

or “print & cut” guest name to identify 

seating arrangements. 

Tote measures approx. 3.5” tall x 2.5” wide 

x 1” deep at base when fully assembled. 

ASSEMBLY: 1. Identify the two shapes:

large one-piece egg tote hull

(select desired hole size - cut 1)

optional personalizing name wavy band

1. Bend hull shape back on all perforation lines

for front, back & bottom panels, side boxing

and tabs.

3. Bend the boxing up and inward as

the boxing side walls/tabs are also bend

inward to be parallel to egg front and back.

4. Push each side inward until the puzzle

knobs align and fit together, which will align

the straight-across edges; then . . .

. . . secure with a small piece of cello tape.

5. Bend the egg-shaped front and back panels

up into position to touch the puzzle knob sides

of the boxing configuration, and attach in place. 

Reach fingers into compartment to provide 

press-against resistance. 

The model is showing temp double sided tape 

being used, with a small piece placed across 

boxing wall (again) prior to bending up walls. 

Using tape like this makes it possible to carefully 

un-assemble after one use, flatten and store 

in a file folder, for instance, until needed again.

6. Add desired contents, then

thread ribbon (or twine, etc.) through aligned

punch holes and tie neat knot and bow

as desired. 

7. For personalized dining place card version,

consider cutting the wavy name tag,

ink-penning by hand, using "print & cut" methods

to add each guest's name. This may be most

easy completed while hull is flat, but can also

be added one completed.

Here are the two completed versions

shown as models (both have larger holes).
