Alternative Wrapping

I don't know about you but after our manic few months before Christmas I get so fed up with the traditional red/green/gold packaging that any colour/style provides a refreshing change.

I just love the packaging (see photo) that we recently used for a customer who really needed cheering up. The colours are fabulous and it just shows how versatile our packing can be.

If you've something on mind for a specific friend, releative, employee - talk to us! We can tailor any packaging to suit their tastes - and we're really quite friendly and open to ideas - honest!
