One of my children’s favorite activities when they were growing up was to “play food” and I designed some print and cut paper food inspired by them! I hope you enjoy, and as a disclaimer please use with adult supervision.

Begin by printing the design file in the Silhouette Studio software. Just a friendly reminder to remember to print the registration marks! ;) Proceed to cut the design file with your paper settings. I use Epson Premium matte paper and the plain cardstock settings work well for me.

Remove the design from the cutting mat. Fold the perforations as shown above.

Fold up the tabs on the end and add glue as shown above.

Fold over the other side of the milk carton and press down onto the glued tabs to adhere.

To fold up the bottom, fold in the side tabs and fold up the tab on the bottom flap.

Fold the tab inside the box to close the bottom of the box.

Repeat this process to close the top of the box. You can add glue to the tab on the flap and adhere to the inside of the box if you want to keep the box assembled. Otherwise, do not glue it and you can open it back up for flat storage.

You can use these assembly instructions for the other play food boxes, also available in the Silhouette Design store online.

Enjoy and have fun!
