MY LITTLE SHIPPING STATION

One of my favorite parts of having an Etsy shop is wrapping up orders and shipping them out. I always think it's really nice to get a package that has a little extra thought put into the wrapping, so I really wanted a cohesive, pretty way to wrap up orders. I got almost all these supplies from Etsy - the kraft paper tissue, thick bakers twine, black and white washi tape.

A few weeks ago, when I was reorganizing and cleaning my work room, I put all my packaging supplies into this old, wooden box for easy access to move it wherever I need it. I've also started writing more letters recently - with old friends who live far away. So it's nice to have some pretty little things at hand for that, too.

  4. In an ideal world, I would spend all day packaging and wrapping things. I was the kid who used to wrap Dove soap boxes with printer paper (just for practice) and put them back in the bathroom cabinet.

  5. This is such a sweet little space, and your wrapping is lovely. I'm sure anyone would be happy to open a package like that!

  6. this is PERFECT. i might have to copy the idea and make my own. i have everything in little boxes which is organized but annoying when i need to make it to the post office on time and want to add a little extra. i also have almost the same box and it's just housing a stack of notebooks.
