Packaging Details... Gooddog Look Away (unless it came today)

For those of you who care (and really how could you not care inordinately about such stuff... I know it's been hard for you to focus on your work wondering how on Earth I packaged up my giveaway box)...

Instead of filling the box with popcorn I used green tissue paper that had been cut into strips. No, I did not do this for this project... I did happen to have a box full leftover from Easters past when I used this as Easter grass (for some reason I thought regular Easter grass was a chocking hazard for babies... why?... I cannot fathom a reason now). Got some wrinkled tissue paper hanging around (and I know you do since who on Earth can throw that shit out) you could achieve this in no time.

Remember how cutely I was able to package up my Christmas Sugar Cookies (as if you didn't sear their image into your brain)? Well... I was not able to find patterned wax paper in an appropriate (aka not red & white striped candy cane) pattern so I just took some pinking shears to plain white.
It is not as cute but will have to do. It's pretty important to keep the icing off the back of the other cookies when they're stacked or they can glue together during the temperature changes of shipping... completely ruining all the effort you put into the icing.

I packaged up the rice krispie eggs like this...

(please people spare yourselves and do NOT make these) I ate all the leftovers yesterday... could not stop shoveling them into my face. I never thought I liked white chocolate until I started covering things I liked in it... then I realized it's addictive powers.

You already saw the jelly bean carrot...

And the playdough eggs...


But, please, those are both so freaking cute they bear repeating.



And just in case you wondered how *crazy* I am...

I stamped the box to cover up past markings... and... colored them in.

Yeah... that's how I roll.
