And nobody does it better than Back to Zero! We stumbled upon them a couple of years ago when trying to source interesting packaging components for Lee Allen Photography and spent ages trying to find a UK company who offered the range and the quality they do - but to no avail. This morning, we're stuck indoors finishing off reports and other such fun, so when our little package arrived in the post this morning Adrienne did a little dance of glee! [this usually involves clapping of hands and hopping from one foot to the other]
"Exciting post from @backtozeroco for @frillyind makes working on a Saturday less hateful! #packaging #wax"
Whilst taking a break for some lunch, we decided to mock up a box (we've sourced some thinner boxes which allow us to use Royal Mail's 'large letter' rate rather than 'parcel' rate, which means ALL OUR UK SHIPPING COSTS HAVE SHRUNK! - And, come the end of March, that will be applicable to international deliveries too! Woohoo!) and test out the different coloured waxes - the plan is to order a bulk volume of one, maybe two colours, but we never trust photos online to show the true colours of this type of thing!
So we've road tested 9 new colours, and we already have some silver (which we're not keen on), some yellow (which is really Lee Allen's) and some lime green, which we thought we'd love, but which actually looks quite flat when we use it against the neon tape! (please ignore Adrienne's cake crumbs)
Which are your favourite colours? We like 5 of them very much, but don't want to order that many! DECISIONS!
Wax and custom seals can be ordered from Back to Zero - we use their Etsy store, but they also have their own standalone website now so go check them out!
