Filled With Fun Birthday Wagon treat box for Nuggets

 I had so much fun creating today’s fun filled treat box!  I just had to make a little treat box as soon as I received this bundle.  I worked hard to figure out how to make the wagon sturdy enough to stand up to my grandson.  He just had his 6th birthday and he received the first one I made.  He absolutely loves it, but he is a little hard on paper crafts.  So I devised a way to allow it to stand without flimsy wheels.  It does mean you have to fussy cut the wagons rather than use the die, but I think it’s well worth the effort.  The project today, was done in pinks and purples rather in the blues and greens I did for my grandson.  I hope you will be inspired to give them a try.  You can watch the video replay on how I put mine together on my YouTube  channel.
