ICS Blog Hop Perfectly Packaged!

 

Woo Hoo it's Inspire, Create and Share Blog Hop Time!  This month our theme is Perfectly Packaged since Christmas is right around the corner we wanted to inspire you with gift packaging and coordinating cards!  We hope you enjoy our hop this month!  

So each year I like to give little something somethings to my co-workers and I like to try and make it something usable with our jobs!  If you know flight crew members then you know that sleep is an issue so I made some sleepy time essential oil roller balls for my flying gal pals!   So I needed something cute but small to package these in, yeah square pillow box thinlit to the rescue!  So here is the trio, square pillow box, 3 x 3 card and coordinating envelope:

Here is just the box:

Here is the gift, I recently started dabbling in essential oils and have been having a lot of fun making things for my home, use and gifts!  Lots of little things will fit into this packaging...gift cards, little hand soaps and lotions from bath and body, jewerly, thongs  (LOL!), perfume, candy, ect!

 Here is the card:
