Hi there

I need to send a mug, including contents, in a gift bag direct to a recipient (so it arrives as a gift)... I was thinking perhaps plain box filled with packing peanuts....

I guess the box would need to be between 20cm cubed - 30cm cubed (for bigger options I do)... does anyone currently send mugs this way, and if so can recommend a supplier for nice boxes and packing peanuts......

Many thanks!!

...any ideas anyone...?

Never has a topic been soo quiet! hahaha! Think Ive found a gap in the market

how about the ploystyrene boxes with a sleeve around it, perhaps giftwrapped ?? then in a plain box.

Why do you want a big box for 1 mug? What else is being sent or am I missing something? The "and contents" bit a lost me I guess...... is that tea or coffee

thanks both - its to include small gift type items but they will pertrude above the edge of the cup, so the standard boxes are too small.....Ive found plenty of plain boxes, but I want something a bit more jazzy....then its received as a gift, but save to post..

i would still put it in something plain, even if its only a plastic mailer over the box, once people delivering items know they are "gifts" temptation can often lead them astray

yeah, possibly...am struggling to find supplies though!!!! Definatey a market for postal gift boxes!

If you are looking for custom boxes then you're going to looking at significant numbers at a time to make it worthwhile.Try these guys...www.stevensboxes.com

could you not put the mug in the box, with the top cut off, then inside a ready made metallic / patterned bottle bag filled up with trimmings, and then in a mailer ??

these do large boxes, you would have to lay the mug down but it would look effective http://www.midpac.co.uk/gift-boxes/larg ... gift-boxes
