This was the best video for starting out! I truly appreciate the valuable gems dropped! 🥰
Yay! I'm so glad it was helpful! I need to do a new version now that we have our own custom boxes.
This was absolutely an Amazing view into your Creative process!! Cat and Raven Thank you for being so supportive to the Community both 🧼and 🏳️🌈
Thanks, Hex!
Loved this video! It was very helpful🙂
You're right, those boxes are great for reuse. I ship my products in repurposed materials as much as possible, and your boxes are super sturdy! Someday I'll come up with a pretty packaging setup like yours. I'm not at that point yet.
I haven’t gotten the pretty paper yet either, but I had a ton of like butcher/craft paper from moving that I’ve been using to cushion my boxes with
I know this is an older video but I so appreciate all the info provided!💜
I'm so glad it's helpful! I need to make a new video soon because we've made some tweaks since this was originally made. Still a good starting point, I think
Great video!! You have provided a lot of value and I appreciate you adding eco-friendly tips!
Thank you so much for the detailed video! So helpful 🌈
Boy do I ever need to update it though! haha we've changed a lot!
@@CatandRaven still some good tips in there! Lol.
THANK YOU!!! I just started my business up, and I took your advice on the box size and the flat rate bubble envelopes! I’ve shipped two orders and both fit perfectly. But I will now know where to get better boxes and tape
Yay! So glad this helped! Before using EcoEnclose, we got a lot of our boxes on ebay, just search "corrugated mailers" and you can find all kinds of sizes! And if you're using standard shipping tape, be on the hunt for clearance packages of tape at places like Target.

@@CatandRaven thank you!! I might also take your advice on the tape stickers from USPS for the top of the mailer
Thanks for posting, and the inside story on Uline.
Thank you for the great tips and links in this video!
As a fellow LGBTQ+ soap maker, I’ve been at my wit’s end trying to find economical ways to package and label my soaps. It can get overwhelming sifting through suppliers’ sites and trying to be as eco-friendly as possible.
I especially liked the tip you shared with creating labels on 32lb recycled paper using Indesign, and the tape dispenser for adhesion.
Thank you for all you do, and for being a creative inspiration!
🏳️🌈❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🏳️🌈
We're so glad this helped! Please hit us up if you ever need info on suppliers or anything!

@@CatandRaven Thank you! I literally just followed you on IG. Loving everything you do and stand for!
Thank you❤
No problem! I need to sit down and do an updated version of this!
Love my national wrap system. Saves soo much time but youre right, its not an inexpensive investment. I saved up for quite some time.
I had no idea about Uline not being LGBT friendly thanks for the heads up, and where to find your shipping supplies.
Note to Self.. but all releases in cubic rates..
Thank you for this I usually ship my soaps in an organza bag but I need something better 18:03
Soap boxes are a fantastic option, for sure!

Hello love the video. Question- what size of boxes for three soaps? amazon purple mold size. And for 5 or six soaps. And for 1 trying to figure out what sizes to buy. Please help. Thank you
Hey Elizabeth! Like in the video, we use a 6x5x3 box to hold up 3 to 5-6 soaps, larger than that we bump up to a 9x5x3 :)
