All the supplies you need to make Message in the Bottle Luggage Mailing Boxes!


Recommended Posts

If you want to make the awesome mailing boxes like you've seen around here, here are your supplies! I bought these for my save the dates but did something a little different. I used some of the supplies on my new idea but everything is new/unused.

 

  • 30 Mailing Boxes: from Sand Art Supplies
  • I large sheet of Black Foam for Handles
  • Gold Brads for Handles (enough for 30 boxes plus some extras)
  • 3 Rolls of Black and White Ribbon for straps (plus a roll that I cut up but never used)
  • 30 Shipping Tags

 

This should save you from driving around town so you can get right to work. You'll just need to purchase a hot glue gun (for assembling), glue stick to attach the shipping labels and the supplies for the message in the bottles. The boxes will fit a 6 1/2 tall bottle which you can purchase here:  (http://www.sandartsupplies.com/StoreBox/message_bottles.htm) I'd get the sand from walmart or a craft store so you don't have to pay shipping.

 

I'm selling for $25 obo plus shipping which should be no more than $10 in a flat rate box

It does. I did not make these myself but there are a few other threads where ladies did make them I can point you to.Check out my pinterest board and you can see the picture before you follow the link: http://pinterest.com/dominiqueamber/save-the-date/
