#1 Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Pootles – Hexagonal Tea Light Box using Garden Impressions
Happy Wednesday everyone!
As you may know, I had a recent slight move around in my office. I wanted to extend my desk so it was one long desk rather than a sort of squared ‘U’ shape. While doing that, my 10 year old son Jacob decided to help me out and went on a clear out of all my inspiration drawers. I’m sure we all have them, drawers full of things that we are going to put into pretty packaging at some point in time. Well, he pulled out everything and sorted them into 3 drawers – candles, beauty treats and finally food and jars. Not sure why that combination at the end, but it’s what he went with.
Then he started pulling out things he thought I ought to work with, so over the coming weeks, there will be stuff he decided on!
And one of the things he pulled out was actually a finished project from a while back which is THIS ONE here. He wanted me to make it in brighter colours than the muted ones I had shown before. Well, one must do what one’s 10 year old says!
And so I did!
And he was right!
I rather like it in the bright colours of the Garden Impressions paper, and the simple addition of a trio of Blossom Elements is really all it needs. And a little trim of course.
Simple and easy and using the tiniest piece of paper ever!
Have a lovely day, and perhaps you’ll remake an old project too!

Hi Sam,
I’ve made this packaging a ton of times for the Yankee tea lights and love it.
I have larger tea lights from Ikea that measure 2 3/4” round and 7/8” tall. Have you made this packaging for this size tea light before?
Thank you!
Thanks Sam! I have that paper & I’m going to try it! Lovely little gift.
These are just so darn sweet. So simple, yet so pretty. Thanks for another fun video and project.
