Packing Our Earrings Orders | How to & Ideas

- We would like to share with you how we pack our earring orders, our tips and ideas. Many of you, our subscribers, are handmade earrings makers and sometimes the creations have to travel to their new owners, so we think you might find this information helpful. Some of you are even starting your own small business, and in this case, you totally need to think about packaging.
Our goal, when it comes to packing the earrings, of course is that the package should look good when it arrives to the customer, on the other hand the packaging must also be secure, because some of the earrings travel to the other side of the world!
In the video you will see how we make our custom earring cards and some other packaging materials that we use.
For the earring cards you will need watercolour paper, brush and watercolours. What we absolutely love is the corner punch. There are existing many (also more decorative kinds) with various designs (for corners or even whole edges!).
Other materials that you should prepare if you are about to send some orders are:
Stickers - these are not 100% neccessary, but who does't like stickers! Yay :) And they are also good for building your brand awarness. You can put them on earring cards, boxes, envelopes, everywhere, and you do not need to custom order everything. We ordered these locally, in a local print shop.
Wrapping papers - you can use plain wrapping tissues, but we wanted something in our colours, so we got this custom tissue paper from Noissue. Because they ship worldwide, we can put a link here for you: www.noissue.co/
Boxes - We got these boxes locally, also you can just google packaging boxes and you will sure find many different sizes and types. We like this type because it's the best ecological option we could find.
Envelopes - we are not showing you the envelopes in the video, but we can tell you that we use the envelopes with bubbles inside. It's not very ecological and we are worried about this. But because the earrings often travel very far, we do maximum to protect them. If you have a tip for improvement, tell us in the comments!
Of course, keep in mind that care instructions and invoice should be added in the envelopes too.

Thank you! ☺️
Beautiful earrings and packaging. Thank you for sharing, you have given me some great ideas! 🦋🌸🌼🌺🦄
Thank you for you kind words! ✨🌻🧡
Thank you for posting!! I have been having a hard time choosing a card option that would save me printer ink, and the watercolor paper and paint is a creative option.
Exactly!! The best part about it is that each card is unique and that you can choose the colours to complement the earrings :) thank you for your kind words!
Aren't u kind to share these 🤩
Good job❤️
I'm terrible at packing so thank you this helps me
Happy that it helps! It requires little bit of patience, but it’s nothing you couldn’t do ♥️
That was awesome
Thank you!
Pretty😍
Thank you Rosa!
This is great and cost saving way to package. Love it. Can you pls tell me what kind of paper is that and what color paint are you using to paint on the paper. Thank you.
Hi! Thank you! The wrapping paper is from Noissue - link in the video description. And the colour to paint on the paper- it is watercolour- any watercolour set will do the job ☺️
Beautifully packing idea 👍 I like it 😊
Thank you! 🌞
@@MyVian 😊😊
What size boxes would you suggest for larger earrings? Like drop or hoops. I'm having a nightmare finding the right sizes. Great vid btw 😊
Hi and thank you! 🌷 And for the box size - This really depends on what your supplier offers. If you can have custom size then place your earrings on the card, wrap in packaging paper and then measure the dimensions to determine what size you need ☺️
@@MyVian Thanks! I appreciate your response 💜
Hi is this a C7 box 101mm x101mmx200mm? I'm about to order from eBay to ship out some earrings. I wanted to see how big the box is in hand before ordering.
I'm really impressed by your work. And I'm confused with what clay to buy. Can u say which clay is good? And I have doubt is does this clay gets cracked and breaks easily??
Hi! Good quality polymer clay is very durable, we use Fimo brand for examle, but also other brands like sculpey or cernit etc. are good and durable.
Apparently sculpey 3 is not good, only sculpey premo is good 🤷🏻♀️
What type of sheet?
Nice
Thank you!
What is your box size?
And from where can we buy the customized stickers like u used as myvian
We still have a big batch from our local printshop.. but definitely Noissue has everything customisable that you need for pretty packaging, there is link to their website in the video description :)
Do you varnish your clay earrings?
Ho Napaea, some of them yes, but it is not necessary, polymer clay is very durable and stable ☺️
Ok, but how do you ship it exactly? Do you put a address label on it? I know how to pack earrings, but I’m trying to figure out how to ship it
This very much depends on your location, probably there is not universal best shipping method. Since we are in Europe and our national post has good rates and provides tracking services, we choose post office.
What size is the box? thats a perfect size
Hi Bria! The boxes are 9 x 14 x 3 centimeters :)
Clean packing, no shredded paper that goes directly to bin
Can you please tell me at what rate u sell it i want to give it a try ,please !
Hello! Artists sell polymer clay earring at various prices depending on the difficulty and level. We see price range online from 5$ up to 150$
