Gift Wrapping Station Idea for Small Businesses
I am coming up on my 5th year in business, and one of the things I think is important is NICE PACKAGING! To be completely honest, I have not really done this or taken it seriously until this year. People at vendor shows have been making the comments about how it looks great! (If they only seen my Chinee take out bags from the past! LOL, but seriously, They are OKAY for pick ups that sit in a pick up tote)

Here, I am using a reclaimed Pallet, and Screwed in hooks as a stand for my packaging at my brick and mortar store. Here is a closer view of those Hooks, and you can snag them right here- They are in a multi-pack so when you are done putting them on your pallet or wall- you can use them for other things around your home or small business!
For the paper bags, I have been using the ones you can find right here in brown!
This set of 90 sets us up quite awhile! The smaller ones we can use for SMALL items, and not waste all of the bigger bags-- Which is easy to do when you buy all one size! You can also get this same set in white
Next, I added Stickers that I designed in Canva! allow you to personalize your packaging in a very cost-effective way. Stickers are ideal for use on all types of packaging, from boxes, envelopes, and product inserts to bags and shipping labels. These are the exact ones I used, Avery Shipping Labels 6874- I just printed them on my Epson 2800, I really LOVE my Epson! The ink last FOREVER, and it was perfect for this project as well as my cardstock cards!
You can design these particular labels in canva by adjusting your project size to 3inchesx3.75 inches- It makes the perfect template for these labels! You will then go over to https://www.avery.com/templates/6874, Click Upload your artwork, and import your design! Or, They have premade designs on there for free! This is a photo of what should come up when you click that Avery link:
Now, You just simply apply the stickers to the bag, and Display! I would also suggest this variety pack of tissue paper, you can also buy seasonal variety packs for fall, christmas, easter, and even Halloween! At the very top, You can see I made my own tissue paper with my logo, You can learn how to do that in THIS tutorial!
Please let me know if you try this! You can check out my tik tok on the bags as well to get a different view ;-)
