bethpontiff - Vibrant Designs: Home Based Handmade Business ...

First of all, I am in NO WAY a professional, so please don't take what I say as anything more than another owner of a?home based business sharing what she's learned!? Back in March, I did a feature on my Heidi Bag for Gigispetals, a great feature website who is closing down soon.? I learned so so so much in doing that feature!? I had to come up with a good way to package my product in a manner that was pleasing to the eye, branded my business, and was economical for me!? This is not easy!?

There are many different ways to package a product.? There are also a ton of different things to keep in mind when trying to settle on a way to package your product.

Some things I tried to keep in mind were:
product size
cost of packaging
looks of the overall package

For the time being, here is what I have decided on when packaging my larger products:

In choosing the cellophane bag, I am allowing my product to speak for itself.? If your product looks good, then the packaging looks good!? I simply fold the top of the bag over once and close it with a VD sticker.

For my jewelry items, I prefer to use a drawstring organza bag, but sometimes I have to settle for a jewelry size ziplock bag.? The packaged item then nestles into a bed of tissue paper for cushion inside it's shipping box.?

To help aid in costs as well as staying "green", I also do my best to reuse boxes!? My old job frequently gets boxes and they know to save them for me :)

So, what about you?? What's your favorite way to package your products?? I am always on the lookout for more ideas so please, email me a photograph of your packaged product or comment here with what you do.?

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!
