After much, much, much deliberation…I have finally decided on my Christmas packaging for all of my Christmas dog treats this year! :) I know as a consume and a shop owner, packaging is very important and I wanted it to convey the spirit of the shop, and fit with the look of the treats too!
So here it is!
The down low is this: if you purchase 2+ items, the packaging will look like this, my favorite! :)
A take-out box filled to the brim with delicious morsels waiting to be devoured by a hungry doggie, perfectly and delicately wrapped in two kinds of Christmas ribbon (which I must admit, I had too much fun picking out).
Then of course, topped off with my new Christmas treat labels!
I love the take-out box because it looks ready to sit by the tree and to be opened on Christmas day! It needs no more decoration or prep, it's ready to be given as a gift!
On the other side, if only 1 item is purchased, the packaging will be in a polka dot treat bag! Which I do love, and is very similar to what I normally package with, I just wanted something totally different for Christmas, however because the small priority rate USPS box is so long and skinny, this is my only option for one item. I still love it, and think it's perfect to give as a gift, I am just a little biased toward my take-out box :)
My labels turned out great!!!! I am so excited about them!
I have updated all my items in my Etsy shop to include pics of the packaging so head on over and check it out!!!
Super cute!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a fun and thoughtful approach to holiday packaging, and you can tell how much intention went into every detail. The take-out box idea is honestly perfect, it feels like a complete gift on its own without needing anything extra, and the ribbons plus custom labels really bring that festive, ready-to-open vibe. It’s the kind of packaging people notice before they even see what’s inside.
ReplyDeleteThe polka dot bag is a great backup too, especially for single items. It still keeps that playful, giftable feel while working within the shipping constraints, which is something a lot of people overlook when designing packaging.
If you ever decide to evolve this even further, especially as orders grow, something like custom mylar bags https://www.brandmydispo.com/collections/custommylarbags could give you that same branded, eye-catching look while also helping keep treats fresher for longer and making shipping a bit more efficient. You can still keep the holiday aesthetic, just with a more durable, scalable option behind it.
Either way, this is the kind of packaging that turns a simple purchase into a full experience, and that’s what keeps customers coming back.
