Sour Cream Containers are easy to make and perfect little treat idea for an end of the school year classroom treat or party. I do love Spring time but I really do look forward to the break of Summer. Kiddos out of school, no commitments, lazy days, swimming and lots of plain ole’ fun to be had.

I’ve always thought these lil’ Sour Cream Containers were a fun idea. I mean the name Sour Cream isn’t the best idea for a party favor box especially in the Summertime heat but that’s exactly what they look like. Ya know, like the original sour cream containers at Wendy’s.
How to make Sour Cream Containers:
-
Cut patterned paper at 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 inches.
-
Roll paper into cylinder, adhere ends together.
-
Pinch one end of cylinder together, adhere together.
-
Fill up container with treats
-
Pinch other end of container in opposite direction, adhere together.
To embellish my little Summertime Treats aka Sour Cream Containers, I made a tag out of a 1 1/4″ circle punch and 2″ scallop circle punch, adhered the circles together using Glue Dots®, stamped a sentiment on the tag then wrapped them up with Hemptique rainbow cord. Seriously, these Summertime Treat Sour Cream containers are almost to cute to open!

June 4, 2013 at 12:30 pmVery cute! I don’t get the “sour cream container” reference, maybe Canadian? (I know your milk is in a bag! lol) Either way, adorable & seems ‘easy peasy’ to put together!
