What kind of box to use?
UPDATE:

Bought a really pretty wicker basket/tray at Hobby Lobby (40% coupon!) and lined it with tissue. I looked for the cello bags but couldn't find any big enough to hold it all. So I covered it with more tissue and will put the card in there - when I get it made! - and wrap it with white embossed paper and a big bow.

YAY .



We're going to a wedding in a couple weeks.

I got the couple 4 sets of towels. (Great sale)

Of course, I don't have a nice white gift box to use - so what would you use? A regular brown box and just wrap it pretty?

What I have been using lately for gifts are those nice recycle bags. You can probably find on that is a little on the fancy side.

A pretty gift bag with colored tissue paper and curling ribbons hanging off one of the handles.

or you could try a decorative box or basket and put it in that basket wrapping cellophane that they sell.

Or how about a nice laundry basket that they could use? Wrap it in cellophane and decorate it nicely.

M's sells cellophane bags in all different sizes and colors. Since I discovered them I never buy cello rolls for Easter baskets anymore, I buy these cello bags instead. They are awesome to use!

I think a wicker laundry basket would be perfect.

I love the idea of the laundry basket, I'd even (in lieu of cellophane or ribbons) tuck in a silk flower with my card attached.


But white boxes can be had if you request one at any dept store gift department. Just tell them you bought four towels and you forgot to get a box.

I like the re-usable shopping bag idea. I'd bet you could find one at Target or Walmart for a comparable price as a gift bag. :-)

I like making the whole thing a gift so I would probably use a laundry basket, put on a ribbon/bows.
