Easter is coming, it will be here before you know it! I saw this box on the ever amazing Pootles blog and I had to make it. In her video she uses Cadbury Eggs, I don't like Cadbury Eggs, their gooey center just doesn't appeal to me. So I wanted to put another chocolate treat in this box....more on that later. I've never made an entire box with window sheets. I've put a window in a box and used window sheets, but never a whole box. Let's just say, window sheets are an adventure to work with. I was VERY happy when this box was done. I'm so pleased with the final result! So it was worth the window sheet drama :)
The chocolate egg is sitting on a nest of flowers from the Spiral Flower Die. I used 3 different colors of cardstock (Pink Pirouette, Soft Sky and So Saffron). I tied the box with some white grosgrain and then I was done. Obviously chocolate is the first choice to put in this box, but you could put any beautiful gift in there. 
So here's the chocolate that I used. I somehow found myself at the mall and SOMEHOW wondered into See's. I have very expensive taste in chocolate :) But I believe that good chocolate is worth paying for. See's is great chocolate. I LOVE dark chocolate, but I'm very picky. But I've never been disappointed at See's (I especially LOVE LOVE LOVE their Dark Chocolate Chip Truffles---walked out with a box of those too that day). OK enough with my chocolate preferences-probably more than you cared to know about. I saw this box of 6 eggs and thought, that would be adorable in this clear box and I can get 6 gifts for a *low, affordable* price. So here they are, you too can go buy them :)
Thanks for looking, see you soon!!!!
