Free Chinese Takeout Box Template (Treat Box) - Refined!

August 24, 2011
UPDATE 21/Sep/2011: I refined the template. Do remember to choose "Fit to Page" in printer settings :) Enjoy!
UPDATE: I went a little crazy and made this pile: Printed on 6x6 pattern paper (chose 4''x6'' size in printer settings) Now only need to find time to decorate them:)
I scanned a real takeout box and made this template today. The original size is 10''x10'' before folding. This template is for Letter sized paper so most home printers can print. Finished size: 2.5'' x 2.5'' x 1.75''. I was too lazy to glue the flaps: #10 staples used here:
They will make great Halloween Treat Boxes too!
Stamps:

Studio Calico - Labels
A little tip for a professional looking crisp fold: Pre-score all the fold lines, using a scoring tool or back of your craft knife. :)

Hello Kuhzoo,
Thank you for visiting my blog.
The template is intended for hobby crafting. I would suggest buying the ready-made take-out boxes at stores (come in several different sizes and are usually $1 or less each) You can still cover it with paper before you fold it into shape.
The template is designed for printing on most home printers – US letter size (or A4) at maximum. If you have a larger format printer, you can set a bigger scale or even “Fill Entire Page” in your printer settings (please refer to your user manual for How-tos). You can also try take it to a store to print it on a larger format.
Good luck and happy crafting!
