Packaging Plus: Soap Packaging Ideas
Rock Candy Soap Template
Print out FREE PDF template for packaging your Rock Candy Soap. Score and fold the cello bag insert along the dotted lines. A box cutter or Exacto knife works well.
Score the front label along blue line. Fold and make two hole punches in front portion of label. Thread ribbon through the holes. Secure label to cello bag with double-sided tape.

Valentine Airmail Packaging Idea
Check out this post on my BlimpyGirl.com web site on how to use these printable labels. Click here to print label in PDF format.
I would love to take full credit for everything you see, but I can't. I did quite a bit of research and there are a couple of templates that need accolades. The airplane template is courtesy of Southern Living (click here to print). The Happy (heart) Day is a printable template found here.
The gift ties around the boxes are natural and red raffia and a snippet of paper cord (blue color). Jute cord and gift tags from our packaging set were used to complete the packaging ensemble.
Packaging to Sell
How do you make your soaping projects stand out from the rest? Here's one idea as posted on my blog. You can make this work for any occasion. Just swap out the word label and ribbon to fit your occasion.
Repurposed Toilet Tissue Rolls
Believe it or not, there is a use for those empty toilet tissue rolls you throw in the trash. I shaped them into small "pillow" boxes. I stacked them with double sided tape and tied together with jute cord. You can purchase 10 feet of 3 ply jute cord, 20 gift tags as pictured, and two printed sheets of vintage type stamps to adhere to the gift tags.
Sorry, we don't supply the toilet tissue rolls :))
$4.00 Vintage Stamp Set
This is perfect for packaging lip balms or small bath teas. Great way to showcase small soap samples when using the Mold Market personal size soap molds.
Repurposed Gift Shred
Financially, times are tough. We are all looking for ways to recycle, repurpose and put on our creative caps to save a few dollars. This year, I am focusing on ways to recycle or reuse items that would end up in the trash. Here is my take on zig fill for small gift boxes (like soap).
