Sweet packaging ideas for Easter using our macaron boxes

Tuesday, 27 March 2018

sweet packaging ideas using macaron boxes | Creative Bag

Our macaron boxes are a customer favourite all year round. Today we are going to share a couple of ideas for using our single window macaron favor boxes for Easter celebrations.

These macarons are from Macaronz. The macarons were hand painted with whimsical designs for Easter and packaged in our single macaron favor boxes. Simply embellish these boxes with ribbons and gift tags if you want to use these as party favors.

We added ribbon "bunny ears" to the bunny macaron packaging for a whimsical touch.

Note: you can find a DIY tutorial for painting on macarons here.

You can also use these single macaron favor boxes to package many other sweets. Here they were used to package Easter treats on lollipop sticks. Continue reading and we'll show you how!

Use a hole punch with a long reach to punch a hole in the bottom flap of the box.

Close the bottom of the box.

Slide the treat into the box from the top so that the lollipop stick come out the bottom.

Once the treat is inside you can close the top of the box.

Ribbon makes this packaging complete.

Don't forget we also carry candy bags that can be used to package these sweet holiday treats!!

Every bunny will love these Easter packaging ideas

Easter packaging ideas every bunny will love | creativebag.com

There's something about packaging edible Easters gifts that just makes us happy. Maybe it's because we know that so many little people are going to be really excited to receive these adorable gifts or maybe it's because we get to sample some of the sweet treats that are being packaged. Either way, here's some ideas for Easter gift packaging that we think every "bunny" will love.

Cone shaped bags and boxes are perfect for Easter packaging because they naturally look like "carrots". You can get creative and package cone shaped containers with orange and green sweets to look like carrots or just fill them with lots of spring like colours to give them an Easter theme.

Here's what you'll need: cone bags, treats and/or baked goods of your choice, twist ties, scissors and materials like ribbon, twine, wraphia and tissue paper to create the "carrot top".

Fill the cone bags with treats and add a twist tie to seal for freshness.

If the bag is too long it is very easy to cut it down using scissors as shown above.

In this sample, we added a tissue paper fringe detail to the top of the bag and added another twist tie to keep the tissue paper fringe in place.

To finish we added a ribbon bow to hide the twist tie.

Now lets display those adorable carrots so they can be used as a centre piece for holiday entertaining. We added chocolate brown sizzle to clear glassware and placed the "carrot" favours into the vase to look like they were growing out of the ground. The chalkboard sign was hand lettered for us by Autumn Grey Designs.

Here's a little tip for filling the cone bags: Place the cone bags in a tall glass and use a candy scoop to add candies to the bags. If you'd like to add something like these cute cookies from Mad Batter Bakers you may want/need to add something smaller like candies to the bottom of the bag so that the bottom of the bag fills out.

You can do the same thing using cone shaped boxes. Here we filled the boxes with layers of orange and green candies to look like carrots. Make sure that you fill the boxes right to the top so that the candies do not move around.

We used cone favor boxes, candies, scissors and assorted colours of green wraphia.

Once you have filled the cone boxes with sweets, add wraphia to the top of the box ...

and finish with a bow.

These look sweet displayed in the glassware with sizzle as well and would make a sweet Easter display idea for home entertaining or as a retail display idea.

If you are a retailer, add a chalkboard sign to these display ideas so customers can easily shop your Easter themed treats.

Holiday Tip for Retailers: Add white pompoms to inexpensive kraft shoppers and style tissue paper in the bags to look like bunny ears for the weeks leading up to Easter. Your customers will love that you've done the holiday gift packaging for them.

Have you used our packaging products in your Easter gift packaging? We'd love to see what you've done. Show us on Instagram using #creativebaginspire and @creativebagco.

Party Inspiration: Modern Wilderness Baby Shower. Let's Party.

Friday, 4 August 2017

modern wilderness baby shower - party details | creativebag.com

Welcome back to our styled baby shower. If you missed the first post, you can get all of the details about our sweet table here. Today we are going to share a few more of the party details.

Make it easy for the Mama-to-be to send out thank you cards by inviting guests to pre-address the envelopes at the party. Turn the activity into a game by asking everyone to fill out cards with predictions about the baby's birth information. Hand lettered messages were added to both a chalkboard and an acrylic card box so guests would know what to do.

Find it here: acrylic card box, striped ribbon, large chalkboard, wood easel, oh baby mason jar, twig pencils, acrylic tray, black wrapping paper, "love Melody" gold wrapping paper, wood toy camera, hand felted bird, raccoon embroidery kit.

A party is not a party without favours. Custom cookies were added to these heart muslin bags and placed on display inside of a long box. As guests pulled out the fabric favour bags a pink ombre detail was revealed. You can find a DIY tutorial for adding food colouring to fabric bags here.

Find it here: medium heart muslin drawstring bag, food safe bag, custom cookies

Flowers and succulents were beautifully arranged inside our LOVE ceramic dish set and created a colourful focal point on this table set up. Make your own table runners by trimming the edges of wrapping paper using decorative scissors or paper edge punches.

Find it here: ceramic love dishes, flowers

Our baby love balloons are a sweet party detail if you know what the baby is going to be. The balloons come with either pink or blue confetti and the confetti is revealed when the balloon is popped. Let guests know what is going to happen before the Mama-to-be pops the balloon so they can get their cameras ready!

Find it here: balloons

Stay tuned for our last post from this styled baby shower shoot.
