    Let the unboxings begin!! 👏👏👏 Oh, this one is adorable, Denise (or “spudtacular” as you so appropriately called it)! I can’t get over how many potato head items you found. I think a little girl is absolutely going to love this shoebox gift, especially with the cute little ragdoll included. I actually just started a Mr. potato head box, but not for this year. I’ve had a Mr. potato head here at the house that my grandkids never played with and decided to build a shoebox around it. Unfortunately I’ve missed all the previous Mr. potato head items from DT, so it might take a while to come together. Thanks for sharing, Denise, and welcome back! ❤

    Yay, congrats on your first unboxing! Such a cute theme! That's awesome you are drawing inside the lids. I know I can't! I don't want to scare the children with my drawings! lol I absolutely love the doll. I never ordered from wow before. I will look into it. So nice it goes with a second dress. So thoughtful of you to add the velcro opening. The potato doll is perfect. I remember loving playing with Mr. and Mrs. Potato head as a kid. My favorite is the outfit. Great deals. That's awesome you found Mr. and Mrs. Potato head items like the activity pad, stickers, color form, and puzzle. Such an adorable and fun theme, Denise! Thanks for sharing! I look forward to your 2024 shoeboxes! 🥔🥔❤❤♥♥

I love the little dolls from WOW but hopefully she can get a manufacturer to make a slight change in the dress. It’s the perfect size for a box! Thanks for watching!

    Ohhhh we should have done a collaboration 🤣🤣. Absolutely love the rag doll and what a good idea to create an opening for the dress! Great deal at DG. I tried so hard (well, not really, I forgot) to get to the toy sale. They don’t throw those often. Those jingle wrist bells are one of my favorites but I can never find them on clearance. Great job to print up your cards. You do so many it’s definitely a challenge to hand write them all. Cute color forms too! Can’t wait to see what other fabulous ideas and boxes in store this year!

She had a whole pallett delivered and then we picked them up at her house. This saved a lot on shipping.. I ordered 30 soccer balls for boy 10-14 boxes.

      The last two years, I have packed 220 boxes each year. I live in a small place and it's truly a miracle that I can pack that many. I don't ever a goal, I just keep praying through the process. I ordered boxes yesterday and I have large baggies started with themed items much like you do. So, when I start packing it frees up room on my two sets of shelves in my spare bedroom. That is why I use the pictures on the end of my boxes because they are half full. I was able to pack more as I became less concerned about everything matching or being themed which is still hard for me. God has really been speaking to me saying, "Use what you have first"!!! I am project leader at my small church and we pack about 50, by people taking a box home and packing.

Hard for me too but also enjoyable because less worried about everything being perfect. That is when I just keep packing until time runs out. Thanks for sharing!
