Brown Paper Packages Tied with String

I seem to update my packaging a lot. Why, you may ask?! Well it's because I'm always thinking of new ideas to ship out my bow ties to make them even more unique then they already are. It's the first thing the customer sees before opening their tie. It needs to be eye catching but also not distract from the tie too.

Growing up on the waters of the Chesapeake Bay, steaming up crabs would be something that would happen throughout the summer. To help protect the picnic table before slamming away on the shells of the crab to get to the yummy/juicy meat, my family would always cover it with brown paper; covering the table would also come in handy through the cleaning up process.

My inspiration for my new packaging comes from my life style of being raised on steamed crabs.  Brown wrapping paper with natural bakers twine, sometimes we would use this twine to wrap chicken necks to catch crabs the old fashion way of getting them right from our piers.



I bought this adorable dachshund tape dispenser from Target and I can't get over how cute it is! Definitely reminds me of my little Pablo that my mother is taking care back home in Maryland.


Twine. 

I can't get enough of it! 


I'm really loving this packaging and the inspiration behind it too! 



Stay hooked, the best is yet to come!
