Default ATC Coffin Template

Here's a template for an ATC-sized coffin. It's suitable for your average vampire, skeleton, etc.

A sample can be seen here: Tricky ATC Closed
Here's a picture open: Tricky ATC Open

I made mine so that it overlaps in front and is held closed by the slit punches in the right front piece. It is rather tricky to open and close, but I found it wouldn't stay closed by itself with the skeleton inside. If you want a gate-fold coffin lid with no overlap, trim 1/4" from each front piece and omit the extra (punched) right front.

Finished size is 2 1/2" at the widest point and 3 1/2" tall.

Have fun!

I love this. I can't wait to try to do it too. There is so much talent and creativity on this site. I get great ideas everytime I visit. This one is one I will definitely be doing for some event around here, even if I have to make up something like, October 13, National Coffin Day.

Thanks for sharing,

The skeleton is "Skeleton Pieces" from Hot Potatoes. I got it at a local shop but they also have a website here: Hot Potatoes Fabric and Wall Stamps

There is a pattern for a coffin box here: Coffin Treat Box

I found it when I was looking for ideas for the ATC.

Hope that helps...
