shop packaging:

July 24, 2009




so i did a post about my shop packaging a little while ago. i really did love those airmail envelopes. but then i got some vellum envelopes and decided to switch it up. so items either get placed in the kraft boxes tied with lace + baker's twine, or into the golden manila envelopes, which are then placed into the vellum bags with an 'oh, hello friend.' label.

the brown kraft bags are hand screen printed with my gocco machine. and unfortunately i made the photos too light, but there is a package with hair pins in them that is sewn closed with a piece of lace trim. i will take better pictures another time to show you. but i really do love that packaging.






you can see a couple more images in my flickr album.
i love packaging, don't you? :)


oh hello ,

    yes... I agree... I absolutely adore the detail you put into your packaging! What an inspiration.

    I do have one question - where'd you get such a big roll of bakers string??

    I have one of the "Oh, Hello Friend" tags hanging on my cubicle wall with the red and white string attached. It makes me happy when I look at it.

    Wonderful packages.... Do you put the items in this lovely package and then inside a regular mailer labeled for shipping?

    So so cute! I am such a sucker for pretty packaging, and have bought many things based on wrapping alone.
