A rectangle box to sum up gifts.


I did not take the picture of the 3 ladies in the box. I did think of how if I ever have to send 3 ladies as gift in a gift box. For now, I am occupied with sharing how commoner can send gifts in simple boxes.
I had illustrated here that these rectangle long box could be a viable box used to pack many gifts which you could buy but could not find a presentable box to present it to the receiver. I had packed a 185cc wine, a belt, a neck tie in 3 of these boxes. There could be other items that suit the box and the box which suit the gift and the occasions.

These boxes come with a matching coloured ribbons that brings out the uniqueness of a custom made box. It is oblong in shapes and comes in the size of 27cm long by 6cm width and the height depth of 6.5cm. A lots of stuff could fit this box.

It comes at a cost of S$4.50 per box and it is value for money to get a gift well presented. For those who intend to have a bulk order, please consult the author here for a better rate.
The colour choice for now are deep violet, pink,
maroon, silver and tan gold. A good range of colour to suit the
giver, receiver or the occasions temperament.

Big box for wines, toys and all...

A silver floral encraved gift box as showed here would have cost more than your bottle of wines... unless your gift is more precious than the floral box. So, let us be practical and send wines with a befitting gift box.
There is this floral printed white box with black floral motif printed on. It sits 2 bottles of most 750cc wine bottles ( Not for some wine bottles which are designed with longer neck). One can add in some cushioning foam or shredded wood chip to give that vineyard touch.

Hope I had not misled you to think these are for wine bottle only. You can put in a pair of shoes, a set of dress and shirt, an array of assorted gifts, teddy bear, fruits, stationary, toys... and the list goes on as long as you need such a big size box to hemp them in.
The next trick is that you go down to the stationary shop and buy a wide band ribbon roll and have this box ribboned up as a gift box. Choose a striking bright colour like blue, red, purple, gold etc to bring out the gift box classical floral look. It does look as grand as a silverware box due to the floral print which stand as a time tested design.
These box come in flat form and one can simply fold it into a box within a minute. Instruction diagram for folding is printed on underside of box. It consist of the bottom main box and a top cover. The formed box is 31cm x 22.5cm x 14.5cm height. It is the most cost effective box in its range considering the stuff one can put in. You can take it for $3.50each. Self collection if you are picking them up yourself. We can arrange delivery for order of 25pcs and above.

Square watermelon in a square box...


Square watermelon does not look normal as we think the norm is round... but Japanese farmers had cultivated it by popular and logical demand because it saves spaces in transportation, easier to store and stack... and customers find it easier to put in fridge and to cut it. It is also easy solution to grow it contrary to first response : HOW TO GROW A SQUARE MELON!" Just put it in a square box when it is growing is the solution.
So, being Square have an advantage. So we brought some square cube boxes which can multiply the effect of using as a costume jewellery box and a gift box for whatever stuff you can put it in. This is a good solution assuming your range of gift or product does not have a fixed form that specifically needs a box of certain shape and sizes.

These boxes are in dimension of 9cm x 9cm x 7cm height. Now available in 7 colours of Silver, Skyblue, Gold, Dark blue, Maroon, Indigo and the Pink in the foreground which showed the interior. The interior is also good stuff, laced with a white satin cloth, gifts are cushioned to give a coveted look. These boxes are also matched with a relative coloured ribbon on its cover to denotes a gift signage.
The price is also relatively sound at S$2.20/each. Consult this author if you need customise colour, bulk discount and printing of words on its cover. We will think of a solution just as the watermelon farmer done their.

Learn about Black Box...

Let me declare the coming few blog post will be on boxes...Gift boxes to be correct. The last 2 week, I had been receiving enquiries for boxes of all kind. I wondered what the occasions around this band, I hope I will remind myself to keep a record down the years to come to watch out for these period of the year to see if it is a recurring pattern... so I can write a thesis.
I had with me a black box to start with... The pilots are holding a black box retrieved from a crashed plane in the Amazon Jungle... The airplane black box is not black in color but painted orange for visibility. It is called black because no one knows the circuitry inside, neither do pilot wants to find out how it record their flight. The flight info tracking is done inside the black box which by itself have 3 layer of boxes, like a russian dolls, one box inside another box to keep it crashproof, shockproof, fireproof, and waterproof!
A few people had asked for gift boxes in Black... probably it show mystery and cool darkness??? I had with me a black gift box here which one can safely used as a ring box, pendant box, cuff- link, or anything that can go into this 6cm x 5cm x 3.5cm height box. Personally, I liked it because it is not in the usual rectangle, square, hearted shaped box commonly seen. It is a non-conformist box as its black colour may not go down went with conservative chinese amahs. The price is also a cooling S$1.00 each... to pay for the black textured finished paper. Stock is available till the seasons is over. This is not in orange colour like the real 'Black Box".

A sweet heart box for her

In a pastel pink coloured hues are these interesting boxes which have an cutout heart shaped window where you can see the gift contained inside. It can be a good display box for jewellery within.
The pastel pink colour are soothing enough for any girl, the dotted little heart also peppered with shining glitters on it giving this box a dedicated look of efforted purchase. The interir is also printed with sweet heart motiff. The sizes of these boxes are about 10cm x 10cm x 9cm for the smallest size shown here; the next size is 1cm increment and so forth.
There was an occasion in November 2006 when I have an flux of request for boxes, and it was more for the year end festive giving. Various styles and sizes of boxes were imported and sold. Would share with you more once I relocate those pictures of it. People asking for all sizes of boxes but the prices for these are not attractive for the seller... like me. The rationale is that people do not think much of boxes and deem it as a simple stuff and cheap and easy to get, but actually it is quite tedious to stock boxes... they cannot be folded and therefore takes up much spaces; it can be crushed and dented at the corners and you will not want to buy it then, have to watch out for cockroaches that laid their eggs therein, yellowing of boxes especially the white one, moulding found over time due to our moisture environment.
So, you see there are very few people specialising in gift boxes sale and the prices are more than one have thought to be cheap item.
Try me, the above pieces started from S$3.50 each.... ( above problems may exist... kidding)

Costume Jewellry boxes

These are costume jewellry boxes which I brought in and still regularly does...

It is in textured colored paper and quality is commendable except when the humidity in China affects its drying time... as the glue takes a certain curing time to dry well inorder that moisture are not trapped inside.
Over times, the trapped moisture will turned into those whitish fungi mould which you saw on some boxes... especially velvet material. Nonetheless, just wipe it off with a dry cloth and air it. It will last another couple of years.
I should provide you a picture of what is inside if you asked me. It had a sponge set which can hold necklance, earpieces, rings. Of course, the bigger one have more spaces.

There are 4 sizes of here; The biggest one in descending order are 16cm x 13cm; 13cm x 11cm; 10cm x 8cm; 8cm x 6.5cm;
The prices are now at $2.50; 2.00cts; 1.00cts; and 0.80cts each for loose quantity, and self collection in town area.

Color choice are assorted as above in picture. If you are like to have a single color choice, then the factory will need 100pcs to make it... or if I am lucky that they have the colors in stock, we can bring it in... then we have to contend to see when the sea shipment can meet your desired date. Further more, for a token sum, and an order of 500pcs, we can print your name and logo to it. Sound great and personal... right?
