Spirited Away Bath Token Chocolates - FREE PRINTABLES INCLUDED

SPIRITED AWAY "BATH TOKEN" TREATS:
A STUDIO GHIBLI THEMED HALLOWEEN!

Hello everyone! My name is Judith Kim, a new Craftwell Design Team member, coming at

you with a cute idea for your Halloween this year!

As a fan of the animation studio, Studio Ghibli, I thought it would only be appropriate to create some treats & decor in the theme of the famous film, Spirited Away. I mean, just look at those visuals!

There is a scene in the movie when a character, No Face, gives the heroine, Chihiro or Sen (she has two names; long story!), a bunch of bath tokens for her chore. These bath tokens are not necessarily important in the film, but they registered as 'CHOCOLATE BARS' to me!

They have the perfect dimensions for it! You can make them large to fit a full-size candy bar or just use the printables provided to create (4) mini candy bar boxes perfect for

a couple of the mini size chocolates!

ALL YOU'LL NEED:

PRINTABLES

RED CARDSTOCK

SCISSORS

EXACTO KNIFE

BRUSH PEN

GOLD METALLIC TAPE

DIGITAL DIE CUTTING MACHINE*

LASER PRINTER*

HEAT TRANSFER FOIL - GOLD & BLACK*

LAMINATOR*

(* = optional)

a. ) If not foil laminating - Print out the templates provided onto red cardstock & cut out the templates with scissors or your digital die cutting machine using the SVGs. The template provides (4) chocolate boxes for mini-size chocolate bars only. Scale up to create for full-size bars.
b.) If foil laminating - Use a laser printer to print out the templates with "FOIL-PRINTABLE" on red cardstock. Do not cut out the templates yet. Pre-heat the laminator.
a.) Once all the templates have been cut, use the metallic gold tape & brush pen to create the designs on the bath tokens. There are SVGs of the designs if cutting with machine.
b.) Cut out strips of gold foil for the circles, triangles & diamond shapes. Cut pieces from black foil to cover the stripes. Place on the printed cardstock and run through the laminator.
a.) Glue the tabs on the sides to form a flat box. Close with the top tab.
b.) Once cooled, take off the remaining foil. Cut out the templates & glue the side tabs. Close with the top tab.
TADA! NOW YOU GOT BATH TOKENS FILLED WITH CHOCOLATE!

AND THAT'S IT!

Here are some soot spirits grabbing their fair share of chocolate!

Hope you enjoyed this concept! And I'll keep you updated on the latest of my Studio Ghibli themed Halloween here: http://designdotexe.tumblr.com/

Thanks everyone! :)
