Whether you want to create a jaw-dropping centerpiece for your own holiday display, a beloved heirloom gift for your grandchildren, or a highly profitable best-seller for your craft business, this little shop delivers sweet results.

A Versatile Holiday Favorite

• Interactive Treat Box: The cleverly designed free-laying roof lifts right off, making it the perfect hidden dispenser for wrapped candies, mints, or chocolates.
• Glowing Nightlight: Drop in a strand of LED fairy lights or a battery-operated candle to create a warm, inviting glow through the shop windows.
• Premium Gift Packaging: Fill it with gourmet sweets and gift it to a loved one—the beautiful glass packaging becomes the real present!
• Craft Fair Magnet: 3D functional pieces draw massive attention at holiday markets and command premium prices from eager shoppers.

The boxy structure is sturdy and forgiving, making it a brilliant introduction to three-dimensional assembly. Plus, the removable roof means you don’t have to fuss with complicated hinges to make it functional!

Commercial License Included

Your holiday crafting should reward you! Your purchase includes a full commercial license so you can turn your hobby into a profitable venture during the busiest shopping season of the year.

Tips For Success

• Glass Selection: Use clear textured or lightly frosted glass for the shop windows so the LED fairy lights or colorful candy wrappers peek through beautifully.
• The Removable Roof: Since the roof is a free-laying piece, ensure your top wall edges are soldered perfectly smooth so the lid sits flush and secure.
• Custom Signage: You can use the included lettering, or leave the top oval blank and use glass paint, vinyl decals, or an oil-based marker to customize the shop’s name (e.g., “Grandma’s Sweets”).

File Formats & How To Use Them

PDF File – Print & Go Simplicity

The PDF pattern is optimized for both Letter (8.5″ × 11″) and A4 (210mm × 297mm) paper sizes, printing perfectly on either format with no adjustments needed. This is your go-to file if you want to create the piece exactly as the designer intended—at the original scale with all proportions tested and perfected.

Simply print, cut out the pattern pieces, trace onto glass, and start cutting. No software required, no complicated scaling calculations.

PNG File – Custom Size Flexibility

Want your project larger or smaller? The PNG file is your scaling solution. Import it into any image editing software (even basic programs like Windows Paint or Preview on Mac) and resize to your desired dimensions.

This format is ideal when you:

• Want to adjust the project to fit specific glass sheets you already own
• Need a larger statement piece or miniature version
• Plan to combine multiple items in graduated sizes
• Have height restrictions for a particular display space

The high-resolution PNG maintains crisp lines at any size you choose.

SVG File – For Vinyl Cutters & Advanced Users

The SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) file is designed for crafters using Cricut, Silhouette, or similar cutting machines—particularly useful if you’re cutting vinyl for pattern templates or creating mixed-media projects.

Important SVG Access Notes:

• Available only through cloud download (look for the download link in your account)
• Must be accessed from a computer or laptop (desktop browser)
• Cannot be downloaded on mobile devices (phones/tablets) due to security protocols
• Not available as a direct file attachment for the same security reasons

If you don’t use a vinyl cutter or vector editing software, you won’t need this file—the PDF and PNG formats provide everything necessary for traditional stained glass creation.
