And They're Off: Christmas Cookie Packaging Tips

Photobucket

Now that my baking is finished, I am off to the post office to mail some treats. After putting so much effort into making my cookies look perfect, I really enjoy packaging them in pretty boxes too. After all, if these are Christmas gifts, they might as well look the part, right? I use several different sizes of tins and boxes to send them off, but my new favorite are these cookie boxing kits from no one other than Martha, dahling.

The kit contains 6 sturdy boxes, precut tissue for lining the boxes, pre cut ribbon for wrapping and gift tags. I added a half sheet of 8.5 x 11 heavy card stock in order to stack two layers of cookies in these bad boys. Also, I always like to use large fluted cups , small flute candy cups , and clear treat bags to make a nice presentation and ensure safe cookie travels.

    Amy, I had to change the link on your thumbnail to your home page, because for some unknown reason the link to the specific page wasn't working, and was deleting the whole linky list.
    However, I put the link to the specific post (along with an explanatory note) above the list.
