Am I the only one who is sucked in by the way something is packaged? Sometimes I think I buy things I don’t need just because they look so cute in the packaging…which means the marketing behind it works! Lol. Anyway…I searched online and found some super cute tissue papers! So I wanted to share them with you! :)

Oh, Karen, how cute are those!? Yes, packaging makes all the difference!
A perfect example: My hubs bought me a sherpy from Big 5 Sporting Goods last year, it's a bathrobe type lounge robe with a zipper and hoodie. Comes folded with a big card board band around it. SHERPY. Not attractive... AT... ALL. I've looked at them for a couple years because they were always so soft, but just never bought one. Packageing was ugly anyways. It couldn't possibly be comfy. Well, let me just say, I LOVE IT!! It's like a big fluffy marshmellow, so cozy and soft and warm! My youngest son has two, my oldest son has one, I now have two, and I even bought my mom and friend one. LOL! They still need to upgrade the packaging to better represent the item, it needs to be so much more attractive, but... it also makes it a best kept secret, I suppose!? LOL! Packaging matters! LOL!

Karen, What great paper! I LOVE the farm animals! YES...packaging does make all the difference! It's always been important to me in my businesses to make sure products are packaged nicely. I learned that by observing Tiffany's and Chanel. Opening up beautiful packaging is as delightful as what's inside! Great finds! Thank you for sharing!

Love those tissue papers. I am partial to the farm animals. lol I bought some super expensive sheets, which I absolutely love, but they were folded so nicely and had ribbon around them. So pretty.

Karen, these tissue papers are great! I love it when something arrives with unique and fun tissue paper. It is a throw back to the old days when everything you bought at a department store was wrapped in tissue paper.

In our previous home area I had a little shop nearby where I always found unique tissue paper. Have to buy online now.

Yes, Debbie…it is hard to find. Or you have to buy thousands of sheets which is a lot of money. That design can be purchased on Amazon but it is in a kit with bags, tissue, and ribbon. :)
I love that crow tissue so much! :)

Denise, do you remember the Gooseberry Patch catalog always had nice tissue papers? I sure do miss that catalog.

Yes I agree. Even though I am not very good at doing my own packaging lol! Your tissue paper is so cute. Those will be so much fun to use.

Wanda Sue, my favorite day was the day the Gooseberry Patch catalog showed up!! I would go cover to cover so many times it was worn! And I had a special savings for purchasing things from the catalog. I have quite a collection of their recipe books too. One of my few “collections”! :)
