momof4kids Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Is there a good way to package m&p so that people can still smell it and see it? I was shrink wraping, but I don't really like to do it that way. I have an antique shop that wants to possible sell my soap, so I want to have packaging that looks nice but that you can still see and smell the soap.Thanks!

Luci Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 I'd love to know this, too. I got a sample acetate box from Frontier, but I haven't put a bar in it yet and let it sit for a while. Also, I think that it would be quite pricey to package with those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindaColo Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 I've heard that you can use plastic wrap. Sam's Choice wrap at WalMart is supposed to be good.http://candletech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2368&highlight=plastic+wrap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momof4kids Posted February 5, 2007 Author Share Posted February 5, 2007 Thanks everyone! I picked up some of Sam's Choice plastic wrap from walmart and used some scrapbooking paper and wraffia with it and they turned out Great!! Much better than when I used shrink wrap.Thanks again!!

candlebean Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I'd love to know this, too. I got a sample acetate box from Frontier, but I haven't put a bar in it yet and let it sit for a while. Also, I think that it would be quite pricey to package with those.I like those boxes from Frontier too - the kraft boxes just never worked for me, and I'm like a 5 year old with plastic wrap, so that never worked out so well for me either. BUT I did just send an email to Frontier to see if they could give us a discount for a bulk order....I may be tempted to host a co-op if they do :rolleyes2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountryGal Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I am like a 5 year old with plastic wrap too, how did you get it to look nice momof4kids? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momof4kids Posted February 6, 2007 Author Share Posted February 6, 2007 there not perfect, but I think they look pretty good. I didn't expect them to look as good as they do. I layed the wrap on the counter and smoothed it out the best I could. I pulled it tight as I wrapped it and then smothed it out again after it was wrapped with my finger.

Candybee Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I always leave an unwrapped sample bar in a soap dish for customers to pick up and smell. I package in cello bags and soap boxes depending on size of the bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
