That thing above, for instance, has to be sandwiched in layers of tissue paper and bubble wrap and separately boxed so it can't move.
The coral pieces are even worse, since I have to use one of those little embossed foil gift boxes (you know the ones, most jewelry designers and stores have them) and take a box cutter to it to open triangular notches in the shorter sides, then construct an interior framework out of corrugated cardboard so they have a perfect safe little cell to live in while the box gets bounced around the post office.
However, my little local UPS store, where I love to go because they're not actually any slower than the Post Office and while I wait to be helped I can talk to the senior citizens bringing their service dogs to buy recycled-paper Christmas cards, was having a sale on all their crush-proof video mailing boxes -- sensible, because who really ships a VHS tape any more? -- and I bought out their entire stock for $6.50. This is awesome, because video and CD mailers are very strong and their flat shape is perfect for keeping jewelry from moving around. Charm bracelets, for instance -- the best way to pack them is two sheets of tissue paper and a CD mailer.
Hey, question, readerfolk: When you order from Etsy, do you like to get business cards? How many? Do you keep one? Hand them out or just recycle them? Does it matter if they've got a note or a special offer or something on them?
