Beach Themed Trinket Boxes -Great Wedding Favors

Matt G.:   Our Raccoon      This raccoon was given to us as a gift. We have named him Jack. He smells really great, but his temper is perhaps his most endearing quality. He complains about being hungry all the time, and we have to remind him that raccoons eat out of the trash can. Despite his ornery disposition, Jack is a sweetheart, and has become my best friend. As our bond grew, Jack started to confide in me his experiences in the Vietnam war. Seeing as he''s only two years old, i have to remind him that the flashbacks are purely part of his overly active imagination. He complained quite loudly the first time i put him into the microwave, but subsequent encounters with said appliance have been more enjoyable for Jack. When he finally does fall asleep, Jack is the most contented raccoon on the planet. His scent of rosemary and lavender keep me calm, and he warms my heart (especially straight from the mircowave). Everyone should have a Jack.

Thank you Matt,  this is incredibly cute and we applaud your creativity. We agree with you: everyone should have a Jack.

February has actually been a very good month even in this economy. Our sales were up 50% vs. last February.  It has a lot to do with the fact that as a people we are spending more time at home with family and friends so small gifts are more important as well as the value, quality and services they found here at merx2go.com.

This "wrapping" season, let's try something creative AND eco-friendly, using fragments of paper and
miscellaneous items from around your house.Save money, save earth and enjoy the work of art.

Two Fragments

Ribbon Join

This wrap uses two pieces of typical wrapping paper. These fragments often have damaged parts. When you cut them away you are left with odd-shaped pieces. The fearless wrapper applies the striped piece first, then adds a second piece along the angled edge of the stripes.

Easy: A ribbon is applied along the edge where the two papers join. It precludes the need for a perfect cut along the join. The ribbon can be taped on the back of the box. If necessary you can use rolled-tape strips or glue gun to overcome challenges of ribbon placement.

Contrast: stripe/floral. Foil/flat.

Contrast Cap

The paper you have on hand may not fit the gift box. Take an even smaller piece of paper, like the red paper here, and wrap one end of the box. Then wrap the remaining part of the box. Finish with ribbon taped to the back, and a bow.

Contrast: the flat red contrasts with the fibrous green paper. The rough deckle edge contrast with smooth red paper. The green paper is light; the red paper is dark.

Easy: the gold ribbon tapes to the back.
