Packaging

How cute and colorful is this box!?

Ok, I realize that I’m a little too enthusiastic about a crumbly old box. But I buy a lot of vintage stuff on eBay and Etsy and most of the time the stuff arrives in questionable packaging…an old mac and cheese box, a box for bullets, a tampax box and my recent favorite, an envelope stuffed with newsprint paper (and yes, the item was damaged in the mail).

Well this is the first time I’ve ever been excited about a package, which is surprising cause you’d think that Etsy sellers would be all about the cute. I mean I get the need to be environmentally friendly, but there are ways to do it without making the customer feel dirty. Like reusing a relatively clean unmarked box and covering it with pretty stickers.

Anyway, look at how cute the inside is too:

There was even a nice little thank you note!
