Personalised box of chocolates(favours)

rsdiscos

Hi Guys
I as wondering if anyone could help me.
I am involved i setting up a new charity group and we are celebrating our formation with a dinner dance. I am looking for some personalised small boxes of chocolates to have our name, logo and date on.
We need them to be quite cheap so any handmade ideas/ templates/ways of doing it will be welcomed too!
Hope you can help!

Do you think that good quality wrapping paper do it for the sour cream container thingys?
making 150 of them is a little scary!

Any paper works, up to now i have tried card and regular a4 printer paper. 150 will easy once you get going they really are easy to do.:D

Hi melissa, my opinion for what it's worth is I'm sure it would be cheaper to do it yourself. 150 to make is quite daunting but having said that they only take a few minutes to make and I bet after 20 you'll be expert at it.
Just my opinion again but something in this style paper http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/1147881?cat=5651 would look very elegant and classy and although these were for a wedding they still could be for a dinner dance too. This size by the look of it are done from a sheet of 6" x 4" paper, probably 4 chocs in there would do it and a nice size to slip in your pocket or bag to take home at the end of the night.

Logo - could you print it off on the computer and make up round gift tags to attach to the containers?

Wrapping paper is fine but you could use straight forward copier paper and have your wording etc printed on the paper and then make the cartons with it. Very unique! Please know that the containers look fancy but are so easy to make (otherwise I wouldn't be able to do it)
