I love to add a portion of a perfume sample (you know stink strips!) to my package so it smells wonderful when it arrives!! I save all of the samples from magazines and cut them in small portions so they aren't overwhelming!!! @dianakaren @deannadag @daisylopez @dcaplisco @lulyduarte @bonzo30 @lovemania @annaconda

I have a strange love for interesting tissue paper and fab ribbon. When I make a shoe sale, I wrap each one, on its own, in the tissue. Then I tie each one up with a pretty ribbon, like two little gifts!
kddid50
I love that!!! I am going to start doing that too!!! That is a big part of the fun!! @barngirl

Thank you!! I was a shoe buyer and part of our job was designing packaging of purchases for the stores. It was an awesome job!!! BTW... as soon as the funds from my sales clear I'm gonna pick something out from your closet!
I gotta get some sleep but have you ever heard of a company called Arbonne? My sister and I went into business together recently and it's an amazing line of wellness and skincare products. I'd love to send you some product to try! Think about it and let's chat in the am! jeancspeck@mac.com

Sounds good!!! I have heard of it but never used it before. Chat tomorrow!!!

@kddid50 I used cute notecards with a handwritten note. Also I like to wrap my boxes. ๐โค

It is so fun to get sparkly fun boxes!!

Me too! I think, secretly... I'm more excited about the packaging than the item I've bought! LOL
I like to surprise my repeat buyers with an extra item from their Likes! A shirt, pants, shoes... Talk about a surprise! I also include lots of goodies-hand lotions, jewelry, scarves... I look at their closets to get an idea of what they like ๐
kddid50
What fun items and ideas to incorporate!!! Nothing makes me more pleased than to have someone say "I love receiving your packages!! It's like getting a party in the mail!!! @vele
vele
I totally agree! The one who takes pride in sending a pretty package, means they take take of their stuff!
I have a whole desk full of tissue paper, little cards, goodies and ribbons! When I open a blah box I go "Really??" ๐LOL
kddid50
ME TOO!!! I love to add a little perfume strip so when it is opened a nice aroma comes out!! (Nothing worse than opening a pkg and having smoke come out of it...UGH!) lol @vele

โจโจI wld love a shout out to the best Posher ever!!! โบ @lspang โจโจ

โคThis idea!!! ๐Posh shout out!!๐@stylergirl Jan ALWAYS has the cutest and most sophisticated packaging! Cute printed bags with shimmery ribbon and bright tissue paper. I actually try to open them really carefully so I can reuse them because they are so awesome! She throws in the cutest little surprises, the last earrings she surprised me with are so stinking cute!
~I usually use tissue and ribbon, or even scrapbook paper if the item is small enough. I like the thickness of it. ๐๐

I have not made a sale yet but when I do I'm going to steal your ideas:-) All of the FAB ladies I have met on here are just soooo sweet:-) I luuuvvv Posh & I'm TOTALY addicted:-)
kddid50
Please do!! I am hilarious, I take every stink strip out of every magazine and save them for my packages!!!! The dollar store has fantastic stickers, ribbon and fun little presents to put in the package to. From time to time I include a really nice gift. Especially if the person was fun to deal with!!!!! Hopefully we can share a package someday!!!! @kittykatfasion
kittykatfasion
@kddid50 I also hope we can share a package...or few:-)...in the future:-) I've always been a over the top gift wrapper so I'm looking forward to that part of the Posh experience!!! Liking this post so I will have easy access to your closet :-) Happy Poshing!!!

Thank you. I have only had of sale with my first closet BUT. I wrapped my items as gifts and-thank you note. I have also found really cut note pads and gave them
gstravaganze
@kddid50 @dressyu @myfashionkloset @kookc I agree! The way you present your package says a lot about the type of seller you are. I personally hand make a thank you note with a small watercolored picture on it. It's fun because I love to paint but also I can personilize it to my dear poshmark buyer.
51twenty
Yes! It's all in the details. I always hand write a "Thank You" note on pretty cards and I made coupons too. I let them know that if they should my closet again they can redeem there coupon on there next purchase. I make sure that my buyers purchase is packaged to delight them when they open it- as if I were receiving it!@gstravaganze @dressyu @myfashionkloset

@gstravaganze Thank you so much! Your idea is great - I used to paint. What a fantastic personal touch!
Wonderful!! We miss them dearly..(Eriksson's)

@kddid50 some tips on how I package my sales: I always wrap each item in tissue paper! It makes it feel like getting a gift ! I also always include a hand written thank you note. I always give my sales an extra thank you by adding in a free gift! I have a birchbox subscription so I'm always getting samples in the mail. Things I have double of or things that I already own in full size I wrap up to include in their package! I also use fun packing tape, just because I like making the boring usps boxes look fun!
kddid50
Thanks for the great tips!! ๐๐ @aflattery

Not to ruin the fun because everything here sounds great a i too love beautifully wrapped pkg and you can truly tell that person cared.
Now .. for the a tip ... perfumes, colognes, etc. normally have a alcohol base and I have ruined some of my own clothing by spaying perfume on them ... just wanted to throw that out there ... please be careful because someone bought those clothes, even jewelry from you for a reason! Loved
