About this template
A full Santa treat box with a centered hat rising from the front wall. The front has a printed face with a brim, cheeks, a beard and a smile. The back wall shows the back of his suit, with a black belt, a coat vent and a white hem. The lid is red, and the red side walls carry the belt and hem around to the front corners. The lid is sized for card thickness because the hat sits right where the lid closes.

How to assemble
- Print the design. Print every wall and the lid. The suit looks upside down on the flat piece, because the top of the back wall meets the lid. It reads upright once folded.
- Cut and score. Cut the outline, following the curve of the hat, and score the 10 fold lines.
- Fold and glue. Fold the walls up and glue the corner flaps. The hat has no fold at its base, so it stands straight up with the front wall.
- Fill and close. Fill the box, then fold the lid over and tuck the flap in behind the front wall, below the hat.
Materials and settings
The default material thickness is 0.018 in (0.46 mm); set your own in the editor to match your paper or board. Blue lines are cuts and red dashed lines are scores: in Silhouette Studio use Cut by Line Color, and in Cricut Design Space set the red fold lines to Score. The hat is one layer of card, so its back shows the unprinted side. Use a sturdy card so it stays upright, and print double-sided or glue on a second hat if the back will show.
